## 1. Why I Created This Project
# AstrAI Architecture
There are many large language models on the market today, such as GPT, LLaMA, and others, with tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of parameters. But honestly, these models have extremely high hardware requirements, making them inaccessible for ordinary developers. I thought: **Can we create a model that is both useful and can run on ordinary computers?** This is also what most people currently hope for - a locally deployable AI project that achieves complete privatization while maintaining some level of intelligence.
Thus, the AstrAI project was born - 1B parameters, Chinese-English bilingual, supporting dialogue, text generation, and the training code is open source!

### Core Relationships
## Core Relationships
1. **Configuration → Training**: `TrainConfig` holds model, dataset, optimizer_fn, scheduler_fn and other training configuration references
2. **Training Flow**: `Trainer``TrainContextBuilder``TrainContext`, uses `BaseStrategy` to compute loss
3. **Strategy Selection**: `StrategyFactory` creates corresponding strategy instance based on `train_type`
4. **Inference Flow**: `InferenceEngine``InferenceScheduler``Transformer`, uses `KVCache` (backed by `Allocator` + `PrefixCache` + `PagePool` + `Storage`) for paged KV cache management and `SamplingPipeline` for efficient continuous batching with streaming/non-streaming
5. **Distributed Support**: `spawn_parallel_fn` and `setup_parallel` provide multi-process training capability for `Trainer`
6. **Dataset Loading**: `DatasetFactory` creates datasets (SEQDataset, SFTDataset, DPODataset, GRPODataset), supports HDF5 and JSON loading via `BaseStorage` (`H5Storage` / `JSONStorage`) with `BaseSegmentFetcher` and `MultiSegmentFetcher`
7. **Checkpoint Management**: `Checkpoint` handles model state serialization/deserialization with safetensors
8. **Scheduler Support**: `SchedulerFactory` creates learning rate schedulers (CosineScheduler, SGDRScheduler)
9. **AutoModel Loading**: `AutoModel.from_pretrained()` dynamically loads model based on `config.json` model_type, uses `Registry` pattern for model type registration
## 3. Training Process
The common training process for large language models (LLM) typically includes three stages: **Pre-training (SEQ)**, **Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT)**, and **Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (DPO/GRPO)**. This system is designed to support seamless end-to-end flow, achieving efficient switching and state management of different training stages through modular strategies.
### Core Formulas
**Pre-training (SEQ):**
$$
L_{\text{PT}} = - \sum_{t=1}^{T} \log P(x_t \mid x_{\lt t}; \theta)
$$
**SFT:**
$$
L_{\text{SFT}} = - \sum_{t=P+1}^{P+L} \log P(s_t \mid s_{\lt t}; \theta)
$$
**DPO:**
$$
L_{\text{DPO}} = -\mathbb{E}_{(x, y_w, y_l) \sim D} \left[ \log \sigma\left( \beta \log \frac{\pi_\theta(y_w \mid x)}{\pi_{\text{ref}}(y_w \mid x)} - \beta \log \frac{\pi_\theta(y_l \mid x)}{\pi_{\text{ref}}(y_l \mid x)} \right) \right]
$$
**GRPO:**
GRPO (Group Relative Policy Optimization) computes advantages from multiple responses to the same prompt, then optimizes using a PPO-style clipped objective:
$$
\text{Advantage}_i = \frac{r_i - \mu}{\sigma + \epsilon}
$$
Where $r_i$ is the reward for the $i$-th response, $\mu$ and $\sigma$ are the mean and standard deviation of group rewards.
$$
L_{\text{GRPO}} = -\mathbb{E} \left[ \min\left( \frac{\pi_\theta(a|s)}{\pi_{\text{ref}}(a|s)} \cdot A, \text{clip}\left(\frac{\pi_\theta(a|s)}{\pi_{\text{ref}}(a|s)}, 1-\epsilon, 1+\epsilon\right) \cdot A \right) \right] + \lambda \cdot D_{KL}
$$
The KL divergence term uses mean squared error approximation:
$$
L_{KL} = \lambda \cdot \mathbb{E} \left[ (\log \pi_\theta - \log \pi_{\text{ref}})^2 \right]
$$
The final loss is the sum of both: $L = L_{\text{policy}} + L_{KL}$
Through the above three-stage progressive training, the model completes its evolution from a general language foundation to a specialized, highly-aligned dialogue intelligence.
1. **Config → Training**: `TrainConfig` holds model, dataset, optimizer_fn, scheduler_fn
2. **Training Flow**: `Trainer``TrainContextBuilder``TrainContext`, uses `BaseStrategy` for loss
3. **Strategy Selection**: `StrategyFactory` creates strategy by `train_type`
4. **Inference Flow**: `InferenceEngine``InferenceScheduler``Transformer`, backed by `KVCache` + `SamplingPipeline`
5. **Distributed**: `spawn_parallel_fn` + `setup_parallel` for multi-process DDP
6. **Dataset Loading**: `DatasetFactory` creates datasets, `BaseStorage` (H5Storage/JSONStorage) loads via `BaseSegmentFetcher` + `MultiSegmentFetcher`
7. **Checkpoint**: `Checkpoint` saves/loads safetensors + metadata (rank-0 only)
8. **Scheduler**: `SchedulerFactory` creates `CosineScheduler`/`SGDRScheduler`
9. **AutoModel**: `from_pretrained()` loads `config.json` + `model.safetensors`, `_disable_random_init` replaces `nn.init.*` with no-ops

```
## Detailed Module Descriptions
## Data Preparation
### 1. Data Serialization (`astrai/dataset/storage.py` & `astrai/serialization.py`)
Raw text is tokenized via `AutoTokenizer.encode()` and saved as HDF5 (`.h5`) or JSON (`.json`/`.jsonl`) files with keyed tensor groups.
- **`save_h5`**: Saves tensors by groups as HDF5 files (`.h5`), each key maps to a list of tensors
- **`load_h5`**: Loads `.h5` files, returns `Dict[str, List[Tensor]]`, supports shared memory
- **`Checkpoint`**: Encapsulates model state dict + epoch + iteration; uses safetensors
### 2. Dataset Module
#### 2.1 Dataset (`dataset.py`)
- **`BaseDataset`**: Abstract base class for windowed sequence sampling
- **`BaseSegmentFetcher` / `MultiSegmentFetcher`**: Fetch tensor segments by index range
- **`DatasetFactory`**: Creates dataset instances by `train_type` (`seq`, `sft`, `dpo`, `grpo`)
- Data keys: `"sequence"` (SEQ), `"loss_mask"` (SFT), `"chosen"/"rejected"` (DPO), `"prompts"/"responses"/"masks"/"rewards"` (GRPO)
- Storage backends: HDF5 (`.h5`) or JSON (`.json`/`.jsonl`), auto-detected by `detect_format()`
#### 2.2 Sampler (`sampler.py`)
- **`ResumableDistributedSampler`**: Tracks `epoch` and `iter` for breakpoint resume; supports shuffle and drop_last
### 3. Model Module
#### 3.1 Transformer / AutoModel
- **`AutoModel`**: Base class with `from_pretrained()` / `save_pretrained()`
- **`Transformer`**: Decoder-only architecture, registered via `@AutoModel.register('transformer')`
- Embedding → N×DecoderBlock → RMSNorm → Linear lm_head
- RoPE position encoding, optional weight tying
#### 3.2 Submodules (`module.py`)
- **`DecoderBlock`**: Pre-LN (norm→attention→residual, norm→MLP→residual), uses `AttnFactory` / `FFNFactory`
- **`GQA`**: Grouped Query Attention (q_heads ÷ kv_heads = n_rep)
- **`MLA`**: Multi-head Latent Attention with KV compression (kv_lora_rank)
- **`MLP`**: `SiLU(gate(x)) * up(x)` → down projection
- **`RotaryEmbedding`**: RoPE complex cache (freqs_cis)
- **`RMSNorm`**: Layer normalization
### 4. Training Module
#### 4.1 Training Context (`train_context.py`)
- **`TrainContext`**: Dataclass holding model, optimizer, dataloader, strategy, scheduler, checkpoint state
- **`TrainContextBuilder`**: Builder pattern — takes checkpoint for resume, builds all components
#### 4.2 Trainer (`trainer.py`)
The training loop is nested: **epoch****batch** (with step phase interspersed):
Storage format is auto-detected by `detect_format()`; backends are dispatched via registry:
```
on_train_begin
on_epoch_begin
for each accumulation window of batches: ← step phase
on_step_begin
for each batch in window: ← batch phase
on_batch_begin → strategy(batch) → loss
(loss / window_size).backward() → on_batch_end
iteration += 1
on_step_end
optimizer.step() → zero_grad
scheduler.step() ← per step, not per batch
on_epoch_end
on_train_end
create_storage("h5") → H5Storage
create_storage("json") → JSONStorage
```
Key points:
- `on_step_*` fires every `accumulation_steps` batches, wrapping optimizer step AFTER the hook
- `on_batch_*` fires every batch, wrapping loss computation
- `GradientClippingCallback` fires on `on_step_end`
- LR scheduler steps inline (no `SchedulerCallback` class), once per optimizer step
Both support shared memory via `.share_memory_()`.
#### 4.3 Strategy (`strategy.py`)
- **`SEQStrategy`**: Next-token prediction, cross-entropy with label smoothing
- **`SFTStrategy`**: Supervised fine-tuning with loss masking
- **`DPOStrategy`**: Direct Preference Optimization with reference model
- **`GRPOStrategy`**: Group Relative Policy Optimization with clipped ratio
## Data Keys by Training Type
#### 4.4 Scheduler (`schedule.py`)
- **`CosineScheduler`**: Cosine decay + linear warmup
- **`SGDRScheduler`**: Cosine annealing with warm restarts
- Created by `SchedulerFactory` and bound to optimizer
| Type | Storage Keys |
|------|-------------|
| `seq` | `sequence` (→ input_ids, target_ids via offset-by-1) |
| `sft` | `sequence`, `loss_mask` |
| `dpo` | `chosen`, `rejected`, `chosen_mask`, `rejected_mask` |
| `grpo` | `prompts`, `responses`, `masks`, `rewards` |
#### 4.5 Callbacks
- **`CheckpointCallback`**: Saves safetensors at `ckpt_interval` iterations
- **`ProgressBarCallback`**: tqdm progress display
- **`MetricLoggerCallback`**: Writes JSONL metrics to `{ckpt_dir}/logs/`
- **`GradientClippingCallback`**: `clip_grad_norm_` on `on_step_end`
### 5. Inference Module
#### 5.1 Inference Engine (`engine.py`)
- **`InferenceEngine`**: Facade over scheduler; provides `generate()`, `generate_with_request()`, `generate_async()`
- Accepts `prompt: str | List[str]`, returns generator (stream) or string (non-stream)
#### 5.2 Scheduler 4-Phase Loop (`scheduler.py`)
Background thread runs continuously:
## Dataset Architecture
```
1. Cleanup → Remove finished tasks, free KV cache pages
2. Refill → Pop from waiting_queue, alloc pages, add to active
3. Prefill → Group active tasks by prompt_len, run full forward pass
4. Decode → Pick largest same-position group, run single-token forward
DatasetFactory.load(train_type, path, window_size, stride)
→ create_storage(detect_format(path))
→ MultiSegmentFetcher(BaseSegmentFetcher per key)
→ BaseDataset.__getitem__(idx)
→ sliding window [begin, end) via get_index(idx)
```
- **`Task`**: Tracks prompt_ids, output_ids, status (PENDING/RUNNING/FINISHED/ABORTED)
- **`KVCache`**: Facade over `Allocator` + `PrefixCache` + `PagePool` + `Storage` for paged KV cache
- **`KvcacheView`**: Batch view bundling cache + page table for attention layers
- **`sample()`**: Temperature → top-k → top-p → multinomial
`window_size` = max input length, `stride` = step between consecutive samples.
#### 5.3 Server (`server.py`)
- FastAPI with OpenAI `/v1/chat/completions` and Anthropic `/v1/messages` endpoints
- Streaming via SSE, health check at `/health`, stats at `/stats`
## Sampler
### 6. Tokenizer Module
`ResumableDistributedSampler` supports checkpoint-aware distributed sampling:
- **`AutoTokenizer`**: Wraps HuggingFace `tokenizers.Tokenizer` (not `transformers`); `encode`/`decode`/`apply_chat_template`
- **`ChatTemplate`**: Jinja2-based template rendering for multi-turn chat
- Tracks `start_epoch` / `start_iter` for resume
- Shuffle via `torch.Generator(seed + epoch)`
- Per-replica index slicing for DDP
### 7. Factory & Parallel
## DataLoader
- **`Registry` / `BaseFactory`**: Decorator-based component registration
- **`spawn_parallel_fn`**: Multi-process DDP launcher with NCCL backend
- **`ParallelModel` / `ColumnParallelLinear` / `RowParallelLinear`**: Tensor model parallelism
## Training Data Flow — Detailed Steps
1. **Data Preparation**
- Raw text → token IDs via `AutoTokenizer.encode()`
- Save as `.h5` files (groups of tensor lists per data key)
2. **Dataset Loading**
- `BaseDataset.load()` calls `load_h5()`, builds `MultiSegmentFetcher`
- Sliding window of `window_size` with `stride` determines sample boundaries
3. **Sampling & Batching**
- `ResumableDistributedSampler` produces shuffled index sequences
- `DataLoader` fetches `[batch_size, window_size]` tensors via `__getitem__`
4. **Strategy Forward**
- Strategy receives batch, calls `Transformer.forward()` for logits
- Computes task-specific loss (cross-entropy, DPO, GRPO)
5. **Backward & Accumulation**
- `stand_loss = loss / step_batch_nums` (divide by actual batch count in this window)
- `stand_loss.backward()` accumulates gradients
- Every `accumulation_steps` batches: `optimizer.step()``zero_grad()`
- Every optimizer step: `scheduler.step()` updates learning rate
6. **Checkpoint**
- `CheckpointCallback` saves `model.state_dict()` + metadata to safetensors at `ckpt_interval` iterations
- Does NOT save optimizer/scheduler state by default; `Checkpoint.extra` or `save_extra_fn` can store arbitrary additional data
## Inference Data Flow — Detailed Steps
1. **Model Loading**
- `AutoModel.from_pretrained(path)` loads weights from safetensors
- `torch.inference_mode()` wraps generation
2. **Prompt Construction**
- Messages → `apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False)` → prompt string
- `tokenizer.encode(prompt)` → token IDs (truncated to `max_prompt_len`)
3. **Continuous Batching Loop**
- **Cleanup**: Finished tasks → `stream_callback(STOP)`, free KV pages
- **Refill**: Pop from waiting queue, `PagePool.task_alloc()` for prompt pages
- **Prefill**: Group by prompt length, run full forward with `start_pos=0`
- **Decode**: Pick position group with most tasks, single-token forward:
- Model forward → `logits``sample()` → next token ID
- Append to `output_ids`, update `output_tokens`
- `PagePool.task_alloc()` allocates pages as needed
- `stream_callback(token)` for streaming clients
4. **Output**
- `tokenizer.decode(output_ids)` → text
- Return to caller (streaming: token-by-token; non-streaming: complete string)
## Checkpoint & Serialization
- **Training Checkpoint**: safetensors weights + epoch/iteration metadata + optional extras. Optimizer/scheduler state is NOT persisted by default but can be stored via `extra`.
- **Inference Loading**: `AutoModel.from_pretrained()` loads from the same safetensors format.
- **Dataset Serialization**: HDF5 with shared memory support for large-scale pre-training data.
Standard PyTorch `DataLoader` with configurable `batch_size`, `num_workers`, `pin_memory`, `prefetch_factor`. Sampler produces indices; dataloader fetches tensor batches via `__getitem__`.

# Inference
## KV Cache
At decode time, only the last query token matters. All previous K/V are cached to avoid recomputation:
$$
o_n = \sum_j \text{softmax}\left(\frac{q_n k_j}{\sqrt{d_k}}\right) v_j
$$
RoPE is applied **before** KV cache write, not after — otherwise position encoding drift occurs.
## KVCache System
Six classes working together:
```
KVCache (facade)
├── Allocator bitmask-based page allocator + ref-count + LRU eviction
├── PrefixCache hash-based prefix matching (page_hash via rolling hash)
├── PagePool orchestrates Allocator + PrefixCache
├── TaskTable maps task_id → page_table + cached token count
├── Storage k_cache / v_cache tensors (n_layers × n_pages × page_size × n_kv_heads × head_dim)
└── KvcacheView bundles Storage + page_table + total_len for attention layers
```
`KVCache.bind(page_table, total_len)` returns a `KvcacheView` used by attention layers via `write()` / `gather()`.
## Continuous Batching
`InferenceScheduler` runs a daemon thread with a 4-phase loop:
```
1. Cleanup → Remove finished tasks, free KV pages
2. Refill → Pop from waiting_queue, task_alloc pages, activate
3. Prefill → Group by (prompt_len, start_pos), run full forward
4. Decode → Pick largest same-position group, single-token forward
```
## Sampling (Strategy Pattern)
```
BaseSamplingStrategy → TemperatureStrategy → TopKStrategy → TopPStrategy
```
`SamplingPipeline` composes them: Temperature → Top-K → Top-P → softmax → multinomial.
`sample()` is a convenience shortcut for one-shot usage.
## Protocol Handlers (Template Method)
```python
class ProtocolHandler(ABC):
def handle(self):
ctx = StreamContext(...)
agen = engine.generate_async(prompt, ...)
if stream: self._handle_stream(agen, ctx)
else: self._handle_non_stream(agen, ctx)
```
Subclass hooks: `build_prompt()`, `create_response_id()`, `format_stream_start/token/end()`, `format_non_stream_response()`.
`OpenAIHandler``/v1/chat/completions`, `AnthropicHandler``/v1/messages`.
## Engine & GenerateResult
```
InferenceEngine
├── generate(prompt, stream, ...) → str | List[str] | Generator
├── generate_with_request(req) → same
└── generate_async(prompt, ...) → AsyncGenerator
```
`GenerateResult` uses `Condition` for non-streaming (`wait_completion()`) and `Event` for streaming (`wait()`). Stream callback is `cb(token)`.
## HTTP API
```
POST /v1/chat/completions OpenAI
POST /v1/messages Anthropic
GET /health {"status":"ok","model_loaded":true}
GET /stats scheduler statistics
```
### OpenAI
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}],"max_tokens":512}'
```
Response:
```json
{

"choices": [{"message": {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hello!"}, "finish_reason": "stop"}],
"usage": {"prompt_tokens": 5, "completion_tokens": 10, "total_tokens": 15}
}
```
Streaming SSE: `data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"role":"assistant"}}]}` → token chunks → `data: [DONE]`

## Model Introduction
### 1. Model Architecture
This model uses the Transformer architecture with GQA mechanism (q_head=24, kv_head=4), which saves KV cache memory compared to traditional MHA. The model is built by stacking multiple layers of Transformer blocks, with 1.0 billion parameters. Transformer is an autoregressive model that calculates the relationship between all previous tokens to obtain the probability distribution of the next token.
The model now uses the **AutoModel** base class for flexible loading and saving:
```python
from astrai.model import AutoModel
# Load model from checkpoint
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("path/to/model")
# Save model to new directory
model.save_pretrained("path/to/save")
```
The Transformer model is registered via `@AutoModel.register('transformer')` decorator, allowing easy extension for new model types.

What is an autoregressive model? After splitting a sentence into tokens, the model predicts the probability distribution of the next token. This means the model calculates the probability of the next possible token and its corresponding probability based on the given context (the sequence of tokens that have already appeared).
#### 1. Autoregression
In autoregressive modeling, when a sentence is tokenized into a sequence of tokens, the model learns to predict what comes next. Given a sequence of tokens as input, the model calculates a probability distribution over all possible next tokens. This distribution tells us how likely each potential next token is, given the current context.
For instance, if the input sequence contains tokens representing a question, the model might predict that certain response tokens have higher probabilities than others. The sampling process then selects one token from this distribution—controlled by parameters like top_k, top_p, and temperature—to serve as the next token in the sequence.
Once a token is selected, it is appended to the input sequence, and the model repeats this process. The updated sequence is then fed back into the model to predict the next token. This iterative process continues until either a special end-of-sequence token is generated, or the maximum sequence length is reached. These control tokens are essential because without them, the model would continue generating tokens indefinitely, eventually exhausting available memory.
#### 2. Causal Mask
Transformers use attention mechanism. The input shape is generally [bsz, seq_len], and the output is [bsz, seq_len, n_dim]. To predict the next token, the model's input and output must be offset by one position. The target predicted by the model must be offset by one position, and during training we also use the offset-by-one method:
```
sequence : [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]]
input_ids: [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]]
target_ids: [[2, 3, 4, 5, 6]]
```
The attention score calculation formula is:
$$ s_{ij} = softmax(\frac{q_i^Tk_j}{\sqrt{d_k}}) $$
$$ s_{ij} := s_{ij} + mask_{ij} $$
Here, the attention score represents the degree to which the model attends to the similarity between two tokens.
For decoder-only structure models, to prevent the model from "stealing" information from future positions, a mask needs to be added during attention calculation. We need to apply a mask before attention score calculation. This mask is typically a lower triangular matrix, and for a sequence of length n, its shape is [n, n]. Below is an example of how to create such a causal mask matrix for a sequence of length 5:
```
[[0, -inf, -inf, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, -inf, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, 0, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
```
In this matrix, 0 represents positions that can be attended to, while -inf represents positions that should be masked (i.e., should not be attended to). Because this matrix ensures that after the softmax, the parts of the attention scores where $j > i$ change from `inf` to 0, meaning the model cannot see future information.
#### 3. Rotary Position Embedding
Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) is a position encoding method designed to solve the problem of lacking direct modeling of sequence position information in Transformer models. Unlike traditional position encodings (such as sine and cosine function position encodings), RoPE embeds position information directly into the Query (Q) and Key (K) vectors, allowing the model to more naturally handle relative position relationships in sequences.
$$ q_i = R_i W_q x_i $$
$$ k_j = R_j W_k x_j $$
$$ q_i^T k_j = (R_i W_q x_i)^T( R_j W_k x_j) = x_i^T W_q^T R_{i-j} W_k x_j $$
The $R_{i-j}$ controls the attenuation of attention for different tokens at different relative distances. When the absolute value of $i - j$ is larger, the degree of attenuation is stronger. This approach allows the model to learn relative position relationships, enabling the model to scale and adapt to longer sequences.
## KV Cache Implementation
According to the attention calculation formula:
$$
\begin{align*}
o_i &= \sum_j s_{ij} v_{j} \newline
s_{ij} &= \text{softmax}\left( \frac{q_{i} k_{j}}{\sqrt{d_k}} \right)
\end{align*}
$$
Since the model is an autoregressive model, we only need to calculate for the last part of the sequence, meaning the index $i$ is fixed as the last element of the sequence, and we compute $o_{n}$:
$$
\begin{align*}
o_n &= \sum_j s_{j}v_{j} \newline
s_j &= \text{softmax}\left(\frac{q_n k_{j}}{\sqrt{d_k}} \right)
\end{align*}
$$
If we expand the expression:
$$
o_n = \sum_j \text{softmax}\left(\frac{q_n k_{j}}{\sqrt{d_k}}\right)v_{j}
$$
In the above expression, only k and v have length indices, while $q$ does not. Therefore, during the calculation process, the input of $q$ is fixed as the last token from the previous input, while $k$ and $v$ need to be cached for parts of different lengths. Also, when caching, note that position encoding calculation should be performed before KV cache computation, otherwise there will be position encoding calculation errors.
### 4. AutoModel Loading
The project now uses the **AutoModel** base class for flexible model loading and saving:
```python
from astrai.model import AutoModel
# Load model from checkpoint
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("path/to/model")
# Save model to new directory
model.save_pretrained("path/to/save")
```
The Transformer model is registered via `@AutoModel.register('transformer')` decorator, allowing easy extension for new model types. The `from_pretrained` method automatically loads the `config.json` to determine the model type and uses safetensors format for weights.
### 5. Continuous Batching Inference
The inference engine supports **continuous batching** for efficient batch processing:
```python
from astrai.inference import InferenceEngine, GenerationRequest
# Create inference engine with continuous batching
engine = InferenceEngine(
model=model,
tokenizer=tokenizer,
)
# Use GenerationRequest with messages format
request = GenerationRequest(
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"},
],
temperature=0.8,
top_p=0.95,
top_k=50,
max_tokens=None,
stream=True,
)
# Generate with streaming
for token in engine.generate_with_request(request):
print(token, end="", flush=True)
```
The continuous batching feature allows dynamic batch composition where new requests can join at any time and completed requests are released immediately.

end
```
### Autoregression
Given a token sequence, the model predicts the probability of the next token. Each generated token is appended to the input and fed back, repeating until an end-of-sequence token or max length.
### Causal Mask
```
sequence : [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]]
input_ids: [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]]
target_ids: [[2, 3, 4, 5, 6]]
```
Lower-triangular mask prevents attending to future positions:
```
[[0, -inf, -inf, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, -inf, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, -inf, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, 0, -inf],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
```
### Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE)
RoPE embeds position into Q/K vectors via complex rotation:
$$ q_i = R_i W_q x_i, \quad k_j = R_j W_k x_j, \quad q_i^T k_j = x_i^T W_q^T R_{i-j} W_k x_j $$
The complex rotation `freqs_cis` is pre-computed once (`cos, sin` pairs per position). `apply_rotary_emb` multiplies Q/K as complex numbers.
## Training Loop
Nested loop: **epoch****step** (accumulation window) → **batch**.
```
on_train_begin
on_epoch_begin
for steps in batched(dataloader, accumulation_steps):
on_step_begin
step_batch_nums = len(steps)
for batch in steps:
on_batch_begin
loss = strategy(batch)
(loss / step_batch_nums).backward()
iteration += 1
on_batch_end
on_step_end
optimizer.step()
optimizer.zero_grad()
scheduler.step()
on_epoch_end
on_train_end
```
### Callback Lifecycle
