## Environment Setup
```shell
pip install 'ms-swift[llm]' -U
```
## Inference
Inference with [qwen-audio-chat](https://modelscope.cn/models/qwen/Qwen-Audio-Chat/summary):
```shell
# Experimental environment: A10, 3090, V100...
# 21GB GPU memory
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 swift infer --model_type qwen-audio-chat
```
Output: (supports passing local path or URL)
```python
"""
<<< Who are you?
I am a large language model created by DAMO Academy. I am called QianWen.
--------------------------------------------------
<<< What kind of music is this?
This is experimental music.
--------------------------------------------------
<<< What did this speech say?
The speech says in Chinese: "今天天气真好呀".
--------------------------------------------------
<<< Is this speech male or female?
This is a man speaking.
"""
```
**Single-sample Inference**
```python
import os
os.environ['CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES'] = '0'

## Fine-tuning
Multimodal large model fine-tuning usually uses **custom datasets** for fine-tuning. Here shows a demo that can be run directly:
LoRA fine-tuning:
```shell
# Experimental environment: A10, 3090, V100...
# 22GB GPU memory
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 swift sft \
--model_type qwen-audio-chat \
--dataset aishell1-mini-zh \
```
Full-parameter fine-tuning:
```shell
# MP
# Experimental environment: 2 * A100
# 2 * 50 GPU memory
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1 swift sft \
--model_type qwen-audio-chat \
--dataset aishell1-mini-zh \
--sft_type full \
# ZeRO2
# Experimental environment: 4 * A100
# 2 * 80 GPU memory
NPROC_PER_NODE=4 CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 swift sft \
--model_type qwen-audio-chat \
--dataset aishell1-mini-zh \
--sft_type full \
--use_flash_attn true \
--deepspeed default-zero2
```
[Custom datasets](../Instruction/Customization.md#-Recommended-Command-line-arguments) supports json, jsonl styles, the following is an example of a custom dataset:
(Supports multi-turn conversations, supports each turn of conversation containing multiple or no audio segments, supports passing local paths or URLs)
```json
[
{"conversations": [
{"from": "user", "value": "11111"},
{"from": "assistant", "value": "22222"}
]},
{"conversations": [
{"from": "user", "value": "aaaaa"},
{"from": "assistant", "value": "bbbbb"},
{"from": "user", "value": "ccccc"},
{"from": "assistant", "value": "ddddd"}
]},
{"conversations": [
{"from": "user", "value": "AAAAA"},
{"from": "assistant", "value": "BBBBB"},
{"from": "user", "value": "CCCCC"},
{"from": "assistant", "value": "DDDDD"}
]}
]
```
## Inference After Fine-tuning
Direct inference:
```shell
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 swift infer \
--ckpt_dir output/qwen-audio-chat/vx-xxx/checkpoint-xxx \
--load_dataset_config true \
```
**merge-lora** and inference:
```shell
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 swift export \
--ckpt_dir output/qwen-audio-chat/vx-xxx/checkpoint-xxx \
--merge_lora true
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 swift infer \
--ckpt_dir output/qwen-audio-chat/vx-xxx/checkpoint-xxx-merged \
--load_dataset_config true
```
