### apply\_kn\_to\_model-> *PreTrainedModel*

> Main function: Given the request, it applies mend to your model. Return the changed weights of the model.

```python
def apply_kn_to_model(
    model,
    tok: AutoTokenizer,
    request: List[Dict],
    hparams: KNHyperParams,
    copy=False,
    return_orig_weights=False,
    keep_original_weight=True,
    **kwargs
)
```

* **Paramters**
  * model(<mark style="color:purple;">PreTrainedModel</mark>): model to be edited
  * tok(<mark style="color:purple;">PreTrainedTokenizer</mark>): tokenizer for inputs
  * requests(<mark style="color:purple;">List\[Dict]</mark>): The edit descriptors and targets.
  * hparams(<mark style="color:purple;">Hyperparams</mark>): hyperparameters for editing method
  * copy(<mark style="color:purple;">bool</mark>): whether to copy original model
  * return\_orig\_weights(<mark style="color:purple;">bool</mark>): whether to return the weights of original model
  * keep\_original\_weight(<mark style="color:purple;">bool</mark>): whether to edit sequentially
    * `False`: edit sequentially(because the original weight is not maintained after each edit)
    * `True`: not edit sequentially
* **Return Type**
  * edited\_model(<mark style="color:purple;">PreTrainedModel</mark>): model weights after editing

### Example

```python
editor = BaseEditor.from_hparams(hparams)
prompts = ['What university did Watts Humphrey attend?',
    'Which family does Ramalinaceae belong to',
    'What role does Denny Herzig play in football?'
]
target_new = ['University of Michigan',
    'Lamiinae',
    'winger'
]
metrics, edited_model, _ = editor.edit(
    prompts=prompts,
    target_new=target_new,
    keep_original_weight=True
)
```
