FAQPage Schema
How do I configure YAML-based configs for LLM fine-tuning with LoRA and QLoRA?

Configuring YAML-based configs for LLM fine-tuning with LoRA and QLoRA involves using doc-driven guidance to define model types and training parameters. This approach minimizes setup time and prevents misconfigurations in Axolotl pipelines.

Can I use DPO, ORPO, and GRPO strategies for RLHF workflows in Axolotl?

Yes, DPO, ORPO, and GRPO strategies are supported for RLHF workflows in Axolotl. The guidance covers these reward modeling techniques alongside pretraining and supervised fine-tuning across multiple model sizes and hardware configurations.

What's the best way to set up multimodal LLM training pipelines?

Setting up multimodal LLM training pipelines relies on applying official documentation and included reference materials to your YAML configs. This ensures clear usage patterns and minimal example commands for multimodal setups across common model sizes.

Does Axolotl support both pretraining and supervised fine-tuning workflows?

Yes, Axolotl supports both pretraining and supervised fine-tuning workflows. Guidance covers these workflows alongside reward modeling, ensuring proper configuration across various model sizes and hardware environments.

Why are my Axolotl training pipelines misconfigured during LLM fine-tuning?

Axolotl training pipelines are often misconfigured due to a lack of doc-driven guidance for YAML config creation and model types. Using official documentation and reference materials ensures clear usage patterns and prevents setup errors.

How do I start fine-tuning an LLM using Axolotl with a minimal configuration?

To start fine-tuning an LLM using Axolotl, provide a minimal training configuration using LoRA for your target model and dataset. Quick-start examples and organized reference materials accelerate implementation for single-model setups.
