[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.57.3/src/transformers/models/apertus/configuration_apertus.py#L27)

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a [ApertusModel](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/model_doc/apertus#transformers.ApertusModel). It is used to instantiate a Apertus
model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the
defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the Apertus-8B.
e.g. [swiss-ai/Apertus-8B](https://huggingface.co/swiss-ai/Apertus-8B)

Configuration objects inherit from [PretrainedConfig](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the
documentation from [PretrainedConfig](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) for more information.

```python
>>> from transformers import ApertusModel, ApertusConfig

>>> # Initializing a Apertus-8B style configuration
>>> configuration = ApertusConfig()

>>> # Initializing a model from the Apertus-8B style configuration
>>> model = ApertusModel(configuration)

>>> # Accessing the model configuration
>>> configuration = model.config
```

**Parameters:**

vocab_size (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 131072) : Vocabulary size of the Apertus model. Defines the number of different tokens that can be represented by the `inputs_ids` passed when calling [ApertusModel](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/model_doc/apertus#transformers.ApertusModel)

hidden_size (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 4096) : Dimension of the hidden representations.

intermediate_size (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 14336) : Dimension of the MLP representations.

num_hidden_layers (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 32) : Number of hidden layers in the Transformer decoder.

num_attention_heads (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 32) : Number of attention heads for each attention layer in the Transformer decoder.

num_key_value_heads (`int`, *optional*) : This is the number of key_value heads that should be used to implement Grouped Query Attention. If `num_key_value_heads=num_attention_heads`, the model will use Multi Head Attention (MHA), if `num_key_value_heads=1` the model will use Multi Query Attention (MQA) otherwise GQA is used. When converting a multi-head checkpoint to a GQA checkpoint, each group key and value head should be constructed by meanpooling all the original heads within that group. For more details, check out [this paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2305.13245). If it is not specified, will default to `num_attention_heads`.

hidden_act (`str` or `function`, *optional*, defaults to `"xielu"`) : The non-linear activation function (function or string) in the decoder.

max_position_embeddings (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 65536) : The maximum sequence length that this model might ever be used with. Apertus supports up to 65536 tokens.

initializer_range (`float`, *optional*, defaults to 0.02) : The standard deviation of the truncated_normal_initializer for initializing all weight matrices.

rms_norm_eps (`float`, *optional*, defaults to 1e-05) : The epsilon used by the rms normalization layers.

use_cache (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`) : Whether or not the model should return the last key/values attentions (not used by all models). Only relevant if `config.is_decoder=True`.

pad_token_id (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 3) : Padding token id.

bos_token_id (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 1) : Beginning of stream token id.

eos_token_id (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 2) : End of stream token id.

tie_word_embeddings (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`) : Whether to tie weight embeddings

rope_theta (`float`, *optional*, defaults to 12000000.0) : The base period of the RoPE embeddings.

rope_scaling (`Dict`, *optional*) : Dictionary containing the scaling configuration for the RoPE embeddings. NOTE: if you apply new rope type and you expect the model to work on longer `max_position_embeddings`, we recommend you to update this value accordingly. Expected contents: `rope_type` (`str`): The sub-variant of RoPE to use. Can be one of ['default', 'linear', 'dynamic', 'yarn', 'longrope', 'llama3'], with 'default' being the original RoPE implementation. `factor` (`float`, *optional*): Used with all rope types except 'default'. The scaling factor to apply to the RoPE embeddings. In most scaling types, a `factor` of x will enable the model to handle sequences of length x * original maximum pre-trained length. `original_max_position_embeddings` (`int`, *optional*): Used with 'dynamic', 'longrope' and 'llama3'. The original max position embeddings used during pretraining. `attention_factor` (`float`, *optional*): Used with 'yarn' and 'longrope'. The scaling factor to be applied on the attention computation. If unspecified, it defaults to value recommended by the implementation, using the `factor` field to infer the suggested value. `beta_fast` (`float`, *optional*): Only used with 'yarn'. Parameter to set the boundary for extrapolation (only) in the linear ramp function. If unspecified, it defaults to 32. `beta_slow` (`float`, *optional*): Only used with 'yarn'. Parameter to set the boundary for interpolation (only) in the linear ramp function. If unspecified, it defaults to 1. `short_factor` (`list[float]`, *optional*): Only used with 'longrope'. The scaling factor to be applied to short contexts (>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, ApertusForCausalLM

```

**Parameters:**

config ([ApertusForCausalLM](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/model_doc/apertus#transformers.ApertusForCausalLM)) : Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration.

  Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/internal/tokenization_utils#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerBase.encode) and

  Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

- **position_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --

- **past_key_values** (`~cache_utils.Cache`, *optional*) --
  Pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention
  blocks) that can be used to speed up sequential decoding. This typically consists in the `past_key_values`
  returned by the model at a previous stage of decoding, when `use_cache=True` or `config.use_cache=True`.

  Only [Cache](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.Cache) instance is allowed as input, see our [kv cache guide](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/kv_cache).
  If no `past_key_values` are passed, [DynamicCache](/docs/transformers/v4.57.3/en/internal/generation_utils#transformers.DynamicCache) will be initialized by default.

  The model will output the same cache format that is fed as input.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user is expected to input only unprocessed `input_ids` (those that don't
  have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, unprocessed_length)` instead of all `input_ids`
  of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

  Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This
  is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the
  model's internal embedding lookup matrix.
- **labels** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) --
  Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in `[0, ...,
  config.vocab_size]` or -100 (see `input_ids` docstring). Tokens with indices set to `-100` are ignored
  (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`.

  one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

  sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention
  heads.
The `GenericForTokenClassification` forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module`
instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while
the latter silently ignores them.
