Model Description

This HF repository hosts instruction fine-tuned multilingual BLOOM model using the parallel instruction dataset called Bactrain-X in 52 languages. We progressively add a language during instruction fine-tuning at each time, and train 52 models in total. Then, we evaluate those models in three multilingual benchmarks.

Please refer to our paper for more details.

  • Base model: BLOOM 7B1
  • Instruction languages: English, Chinese, Afrikaans, Arabic
  • Instruction language codes: en, zh, af, ar
  • Training method: full-parameter fine-tuning.

Usage

The model checkpoint should be loaded using transformers library.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("MaLA-LM/lucky52-bloom-7b1-no-4")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("MaLA-LM/lucky52-bloom-7b1-no-4")
