LLaMA 3-8B Instruct - Galician Language Model

This repository hosts a variation of LLaMA 3-8B Instruct model that has been fine-tuned to understand and generate the Galician language. This model is built on Meta's LLaMA (Large Language Model Architecture) and has been fine-tuned using LLama-Factory advanced training tools to enhance its capabilities specifically for the Galician language.

Model Description

The LLaMA 3-8B Instruct model is one of the advanced versions of Meta's Large Language Model Architecture, initially designed to understand and generate human-like text across various languages. However, its proficiency in Galician is limited. This specific model has been fine-tuned to specialize in the Galician language, aiming to provide more accurate and contextually appropriate responses in Galician. This model is the result of merging the Unsloth Llama3-8B-Instruct model and the abrahammg/Llama3-8B-Galician-Chat-Lora Lora Adapter

Technical Details

• Base Model: Unsloth Meta's LLaMA 3 8B Instruct (https://huggingface.co/unsloth/llama-3-8b-Instruct-bnb-4bit)
• Fine-Tuning Platform: LLaMA Factory
• Infrastructure: Finisterrae III Supercomputer, CESGA (Galicia-Spain)
• Dataset: irlab-udc/alpaca_data_galician (with modifications)
• Fine-Tuning Objective: To improve text comprehension and generation in Galician.

Trainning parameters

The project is still in the testing phase, and the training parameters will continue to vary to find the values that result in a more accurate model. Currently, the model is trained with a set of entries from the dataset and the following values:

• num_train_epochs=3.0
• finetuning_type="lora"
• per_device_train_batch_size=2
• gradient_accumulation_steps=4
• lr_scheduler_type="cosine"
• learning_rate=5e-5
• max_grad_norm=1.0

Model tests

Below, we have several examples of question-answer pairs comparing the pure Llama3 model with the Llama3 model fine tunned for the Galician language.
