Custom Stopping Strings

To enhance output quality, the following custom stopping strings were employed:

• "},"
• "User:"
• "You:"
• "\nUser"
• "\nUser:"
• "me:"
• "\n"

Training Hyperparameters and Fine-Tuning Details

• LoRA Alpha: 256
• Dimension Count: 128
• Epochs: Approximately 0.61
• Global Steps: 793
• Learning Rate: 0.0002
• Loss: 0.6002

Limitations

As a specialized model, Phi-Pirate-v0.1 is not designed for general language tasks but excels in generating pirate-themed content.

Compute Infrastructure

The model was efficiently trained with significantly higher hyperparameters than typical language models, indicative of its specialized nature.
