# Introduction
CSTinyLlama-1.2B  is a Czech language model continously pretrained on 168b training tokens from English [TinyLLama-2.5T](https://huggingface.co./TinyLlama/TinyLlama-1.1B-intermediate-step-1195k-token-2.5T) model. Model was pretrained on ~67b token [Large Czech Collection](https://huggingface.co./datasets/BUT-FIT/BUT-LCC) using Czech tokenizer, obtained using our vocabulary swap method. 
Training was done on [Karolina](https://www.it4i.cz/en) cluster.

# Loss
Below we 
- (i) demonstrate the convergence speed of released model (`TINYLLAMA1.2B_cztokenizer64k_align1.7k_tllama1.1B_C2048_lr1e-04_150k`, at 160k step).
- (ii) justify the contributions of our vocabulary swap method by comparing the swapped model with model trained from scratch (using same hyperparameters) `scratch_cztokenizer64k_tllama1.1B_C2048_lr1e-04_150k`. We swap 1.7K tokens in this run, similarly as for our other models (see [Czech-GPT-2-XL-133k](https://huggingface.co./BUT-FIT/Czech-GPT-2-XL-133k))

    print(
        pipe('Nejznámějším českým spisovatelem ',
