Training Procedure

This model showcases the potential of resource-efficient fine-tuning of large language models using Spectrum Fine-Tuning. Here's a brief on the procedure:

Fine-tuning on German-English Data:

• Utilized Spectrum Fine-Tuning, targeting 15% of the model's layers
• Introduced the model to a unique German-English Sauerkraut Mix v2
• Implemented a bespoke, precision-engineered fine-tuning approach

Cross-lingual Transfer Learning using Sauerkraut Mix v2:

• Leveraged the Sauerkraut Mix v2 dataset as the foundation for cross-lingual transfer
• This unique dataset, primarily focused on German and English, enabled the model to transfer knowledge to other languages
• Improved capabilities in Arabic, Italian, French, Spanish, Dutch, and Portuguese without extensive training data in each language
• Demonstrated the effectiveness of using a bilingual dataset for multilingual improvement

Sauerkraut Mix v2:

• Premium Dataset for Language Models, focusing on German and English
• Meticulously selected, high-quality dataset combinations
• Cutting-edge synthetic datasets created using proprietary, high-precision generation techniques
• Serves as the core resource for both fine-tuning and cross-lingual transfer

Objective and Results

The primary goal of this training was twofold:

1. To demonstrate that Spectrum Fine-Tuning, targeting just 15% of the layers, can significantly enhance a 70 billion parameter model's capabilities while using only a fraction of the resources required by classic fine-tuning approaches.

2. To showcase the effectiveness of cross-lingual transfer learning using the Sauerkraut Mix v2 dataset, enabling multilingual improvement without extensive language-specific training data.

The results have been remarkable:

• The model has substantially improved its multilingual skills, as demonstrated by impressive benchmarks on MMLU Multilingual.

Key Findings:

• Spectrum Fine-Tuning can efficiently enhance a large language model's capabilities in multiple languages while preserving the majority of its previously acquired knowledge.
• The Sauerkraut Mix v2 dataset proves to be an effective foundation for cross-lingual transfer, allowing for multilingual improvements from a bilingual base.
• This approach demonstrates a resource-efficient method for creating powerful multilingual models without the need for extensive training data in each target language.
