pythia-160m-c4
Pythia-160M trained on C4 from scratch (no pre-pretraining). Baseline.
Part of an experiment reproducing and extending the pruning analysis from "Between Circuits and Chomsky: Pre-pretraining on Formal Languages Imparts Linguistic Biases" (Hu et al., 2025, arXiv:2502.19249).
The hypothesis under test: pre-pretraining on English itself yields attention-head circuits as sparse/transferable as pre-pretraining on k-shuffle Dyck.
Usage
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("gizemyc/pythia-160m-c4")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("gizemyc/pythia-160m-c4")
Training
- Base architecture:
EleutherAI/pythia-160m(12 layers x 12 heads) - Pretraining data: C4 (English)
- Pre-pretraining (where applicable): k-shuffle Dyck or English/C4
