Model Card

This model is pretrained as a reference baseline to the Based model provided here: https://huggingface.co./hazyresearch/based-1b-50b.

Both checkpoints are pretrained on 50Bn tokens of the Pile in the exact same data order using next token prediction.

A WandB report for training is here: https://api.wandb.ai/links/hazy-research/ggo9rst2

Model Sources

The model is a standard Mamba model using the model code provided here: https://github.com/state-spaces/mamba/tree/main/mamba_ssm

The training code is provided here and can be used to reproduce training: https://github.com/HazyResearch/based

The paper for the work is here, and the appendix includes additional experimental details/hyperparameters: https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.18668

Uses

The purpose of this work is to evaluate the language modeling quality of a new efficient architecture, Based.

We include a series of benchmarks that you can use to evaluate quality:
