# CataLlama-v0.2-Instruct-SFT

**CataLlama-v0.2-Instruct-SFT** is an instruct fine-tune of [catallama/CataLlama-v0.2-Base](https://huggingface.co./catallama/CataLlama-v0.2-Base) on the [catallama/Catalan-Instruct-V2](https://huggingface.co./datasets/catallama/Catalan-Instruct-V2) dataset.

CataLlama-v0.2 was trained on roughly **800 million new tokens** which is almost double compared to CataLlama-v0.1.

The model shows improved proficiency with the Catalan language while performing significantly better than CataLlama-v0.2 on all tasks.

**This is an instruction fine-tuned model proficient on the following tasks in Catalan**

- *Information extraction (suitable for RAG)*
- *Named Entity Recognition (NER)*
- *Translation from English to Catalan and Catalan to English*
- *Summarization - both short form and long form*
- *Sentiment analysis*


**Model developers** [Laurentiu Petrea](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurentiupetrea/) based on Llama-3 from Meta.

**Model Architecture** CataLlama is an auto-regressive language model that uses an optimized transformer architecture. The tuned versions use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and direct preference optimisation (DPO) to align with human preferences for helpfulness and safety.

**License** The model uses the llama-3 license available at: [https://llama.meta.com/llama3/license](https://llama.meta.com/llama3/license)


### Use with transformers

See the snippet below for usage with Transformers:

**The model follows the same prompt template as Llama-3 Instruct**

```python
import transformers
import torch

model_id = "catallama/CataLlama-v0.2-Instruct-SFT"

pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device_map="auto",
)

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Ei com estàs avui?"},
]

prompt = pipeline.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages, 
    tokenize=False, 
    add_generation_prompt=True
)

outputs = pipeline(
    prompt,
    max_new_tokens=1024,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.6,
    top_p=0.9,
)

print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][len(prompt):])
```

## Training procedure

The model was trained **with the same prompt template of Llama-3 Instruct**.

The model was trained for two epochs on **8x A100 80GB GPUs using DeepSpeed ZeRO** State-3 without CPU offloading.

Then training lasted approximately 8 hours for a total GPU cost of 150€.

### Training hyperparameters

The following hyperparameters were used during training:
- learning_rate: 2e-05
- distributed_type: multi-GPU
- num_devices: 8
- optimizer: Adam with betas=(0.9,0.999) and epsilon=1e-08
- lr_scheduler_type: cosine
- lr_scheduler_warmup_steps: 100
- num_epochs: 2


## Intended Use

**Note:** This model is not intended to beat benchmarks, but to demonstrate techniques for augmenting LLMs on new languages and preserve rare languages as part of our world heritage.

**Intended Use Cases** Llama 3 is intended for commercial and research use in English. Instruction tuned models are intended for assistant-like chat, whereas pretrained models can be adapted for a variety of natural language generation tasks.

**Out-of-scope** Use in any manner that violates applicable laws or regulations (including trade compliance laws). Use in any other way that is prohibited by the Acceptable Use Policy and Llama 3 Community License. Use in languages other than English**.

**Note: Developers may fine-tune Llama 3 models for languages beyond English provided they comply with the Llama 3 Community License and the Acceptable Use Policy.
