Model Card for Loquace-410m

🇮🇹 Loquace-410m 🇮🇹

An exclusively Italian speaking, instruction finetuned, Large Language model. 🇮🇹

The Loquace Italian LLM models are created as a proof-of-concept to evaluate on how language tuning can be achieved using QLoRa by instruct-tunings foundational LLMs using dataset of a specific language.

The QLoRa (https://github.com/artidoro/qlora) method of fine-tuning significantly lower the resources requirements compared to any other methods available, this allow to easily execute the process on significanly larger dataset while still using consumers GPUs and still achieve high accuracy.

Model Description

Loquace-410m is the second smallest model of the Loquace family. It was trained using QLoRa on a large dataset of 102k question/answer pairs exclusively in Italian using pythia-410m as base.

Usage

from transformers import (
    AutoTokenizer,
    AutoModelForCausalLM,
    BitsAndBytesConfig
)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("cosimoiaia/Loquace-410m", padding_side="right", use_fast=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "cosimoiaia/Loquace-410m",
    load_in_8bit=True,
    device_map="auto",
    quantization_config=BitsAndBytesConfig(
      load_in_4bit=True,
      llm_int8_has_fp16_weight=False
    )
)

Training

Loquace-410m was trained on a conversational dataset comprising 102k question/answer pairs in Italian language. The training data was constructed by putting together translations from the original alpaca Dataset and other sources like the OpenAssistant dataset. The model was trained for only 10000 iterations and took 9 hours on a single RTX 3090, kindly provided by Genesis Cloud. (https://gnsiscld.co/26qhlf)

Limitations

• Loquace-410m may not handle complex or nuanced queries well and may struggle with ambiguous or poorly formatted inputs.
• The model may generate responses that are factually incorrect or nonsensical. It should be used with caution, and outputs should be carefully verified.
• The training data primarily consists of conversational examples and may not generalize well to other types of tasks or domains.
