## NeuralHermes 2.5 - Mistral 7B

NeuralHermes is based on the [teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B](https://huggingface.co/teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B) model that has been further fine-tuned with Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) using the [mlabonne/chatml\_dpo\_pairs](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mlabonne/chatml_dpo_pairs) dataset. It surpasses the original model on most benchmarks (see results).

It is directly inspired by the RLHF process described by [Intel/neural-chat-7b-v3-1](https://huggingface.co/Intel/neural-chat-7b-v3-1)'s authors to improve performance. I used the same dataset and reformatted it to apply the ChatML template.

The code to train this model is available on [Google Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/15iFBr1xWgztXvhrj5I9fBv20c7CFOPBE?usp=sharing) and [GitHub](https://github.com/mlabonne/llm-course/tree/main). It required an A100 GPU for about an hour.

### Results

**Update:** NeuralHermes-2.5 became the best Hermes-based model on the Open LLM leaderboard and one of the very best 7b models. 🎉

Teknium (author of OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B) benchmarked the model ([see his tweet](https://twitter.com/Teknium1/status/1729955709377503660)).

Results are improved on every benchmark: **AGIEval** (from 43.07% to 43.62%), **GPT4All** (from 73.12% to 73.25%), and **TruthfulQA**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.api.market/api-product-docs/bridgeml/neuralhermes-2.5-mistral-7b.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
