knowledge_distillation_single_device.yaml

# Config for single device knowledge distillation in kd_single_device.py
# using a teacher and student model
#
# This config assumes that you've ran the following commands before launching KD:
# First download the student and teacher models
#   tune download Qwen/Qwen2-0.5B-Instruct --output-dir /tmp/Qwen2-0.5B-Instruct --ignore-patterns None
#   tune download Qwen/Qwen2-1.5B-Instruct --output-dir /tmp/Qwen2-1.5B-Instruct --ignore-patterns None
#
# You get better results using KD if the teacher model has already been fine-tuned on the target dataset:
#   tune run lora_finetune_single_device --config qwen2/1.5B_lora_single_device
#
# To launch on a single device, run the following command from root:
#   tune run knowledge_distillation_single_device --config qwen2/knowledge_distillation_single_device
#
# This config works only for distilling on a single device.
