How many decoder layer needs to add in EAGLE?

[yjdy]

Thanks for the great work. I find a different between code and paper

In the paper, it say eagle trains a decoder layer.
In the code, cnet.py class Model (https://github.com/SafeAILab/EAGLE/blob/main/model/cnets.py#L491)

self.layers = nn.ModuleList([LlamaDecoderLayer(config, index) for index in range(config.num_hidden_layers)])

It needs to add a decoder layer for every hidden layer.

Please tell me which one is correct.

Best regards

This config is not the config file in your llm directory, check the config.json in your ea_model_path, config.num_hidden_layers should be 1.

Thanks for the response.
If I need to train eagle on different LLM, I think I should prepare different config file.
I just need to copy the config from the LLM I want to train on and change the num_hidden_layers to 1, right?

Not 100% sure, you better check the code in train/main.py

You are right.

Thank you for your interest. As @cyLi-Tiger mentioned, the configuration of EAGLE is different from the base LLM.
