+# LOLA &mdash; An Open-Source Massively Multilingual Large Language Model
+
+## Abstract
+
+LOLA is a massively multilingual large language model trained on more than 160 languages using a sparse Mixture-of-Experts Transformer architecture. Our architectural and implementation choices address the challenge of harnessing linguistic diversity while maintaining efficiency and avoiding the common pitfalls of multilinguality. Our analysis of the evaluation results shows competitive performance in natural language generation and understanding tasks. Additionally, we demonstrate how the learned expert-routing mechanism exploits implicit phylogenetic linguistic patterns to potentially alleviate the curse of multilinguality. We provide an in-depth look at the training process, an analysis of the datasets, and a balanced exploration of the model's strengths and limitations. As an open-source model, LOLA promotes reproducibility and serves as a robust foundation for future research. Our findings enable the development of compute-efficient multilingual models with strong, scalable performance across languages.

+## Model Description
+
+- **Developed by:** DICE Research Group (https://dice-research.org/) @ Paderborn University (https://www.uni-paderborn.de/)
+- **Model type:** GPT2 style (decoder-only) with alternating sparse Mixture-of-Experts layers
+- **Number of Experts**: 16
+- **Model Size**: 1.3 Billion (active*) / 7.4 Billion (total)
+- **Language(s) (NLP):** 160+

+<sub>* The number of parameters a model utilizes per token (ref: [Fedus et al, 2022](https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.03961); [Du et al, 2022](https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.06905)). This distinction is crucial for understanding the efficiency and performance of MoE models.</sub>
+
+## How to Get Started with the Model
+
+This pre-trained (causal language modeling) model can only be used for text-generation and requires further fine-tuning on downstream tasks.
+
+### How to use
+
+You can use this model directly with a pipeline for text generation.
+
+```python
+>>> from transformers import pipeline
+
+>>> generator = pipeline('text-generation', model="dice-research/lola_v1", trust_remote_code=True)
+>>> generator("The quick brown fox", max_length=13)
+[{'generated_text': 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.'}]
+```
+
+To use the top-k sampling, please set `do_sample` to `True`.
+
+**Note:** The tokenizer used in the model comes from mGPT (https://github.com/ai-forever/mgpt)
