# cvector-generator
This example demonstrates how to generate a control vector using gguf models.

- (Issue) [Generate control vector using llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/issues/6880)
- [Add cvector-generator example](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/7514)
## Examples
```sh
# CPU only
./cvector-generator -m ./llama-3.Q4_K_M.gguf
# With GPU
./cvector-generator -m ./llama-3.Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99
# With advanced options
./cvector-generator -m ./llama-3.Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99 --pca-iter 2000 --pca-batch 100
# Using mean value instead of PCA
./cvector-generator -m ./llama-3.Q4_K_M.gguf --method mean
# To see help message
./cvector-generator -h
# Then, have a look at "cvector" section
```
## Tips and tricks
If you have multiple lines per prompt, you can escape the newline character (change it to `\n`). For example:
```
<|im_start|>system\nAct like a person who is extremely happy.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>system\nYou are in a very good mood today<|im_end|>
```
Example to use output file with `llama-cli`:
(Tips: The control vector works better when apply to layers higher than 10)
```sh
./llama-cli -m ./llama-3.Q4_K_M.gguf -p "<|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>\n\nYou are a helpful assistant<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>\n\nSing a song<|im_end|><|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>\n\n" --special --control-vector-scaled ./control_vector.gguf 0.8 --control-vector-layer-range 10 31
```
