Llama-3-Typhoon-1.5X-8B-instruct: Thai Large Language Model (Instruct)

Llama-3-Typhoon-1.5X-8B-instruct is an 8 billion parameter instruct model designed for Thai 🇹🇭 language. It demonstrates competitive performance with GPT-3.5-turbo, and is optimized for production environments, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), constrained generation, and reasoning tasks.

Built on Typhoon 1.5 8B and Llama 3 8B Instruct. This model is a result of our experiment on cross-lingual transfer. It utilizes the task-arithmetic model editing technique, combining the Thai understanding capability of Typhoon with the human alignment performance of Llama 3 Instruct.

Remark: To acknowledge Meta's efforts in creating the foundation model and comply with the license, we explicitly include "llama-3" in the model name.

Model Description

Model type: An 8B instruct decoder-only model based on the Llama architecture.
Requirement: Transformers 4.38.0 or newer.
Primary Language(s): Thai 🇹🇭 and English 🇬🇧
License: Llama 3 Community License

Performance

We evaluated the model's performance in Language & Knowledge Capabilities and Instruction Following Capabilities.

Language & Knowledge Capabilities:
- Assessed using multiple-choice question-answering datasets such as ThaiExam and MMLU.
Instruction Following Capabilities:
- Evaluated based on our beta users' feedback, focusing on two factors:
  - Human Alignment & Reasoning: Ability to generate responses that are understandable and reasoned across multiple steps.
    - Evaluated using MT-Bench — How LLMs can answer embedded knowledge to align with human needs.
  - Instruction-following: Ability to adhere to specified constraints in the instruction
    - Evaluated using IFEval — How LLMs can follow specified constraints, such as formatting and brevity.

Remark: We developed the TH pair by translating the original datasets into Thai and conducting a human verification on them.

Insight

Utilized model editing technique. We found that the most critical feature for generating Thai answers is located in the backend (the upper layers of the transformer block). Accordingly, we incorporated a high ratio of Typhoon in these backend layers.

Usage Example

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

model_id = "scb10x/llama-3-typhoon-v1.5x-8b-instruct"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
)

messages = [...] # add message here

input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)

terminators = [
    tokenizer.eos_token_id,
    tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>")
]

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids,
    max_new_tokens=512,
    eos_token_id=terminators,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.4,
    top_p=0.95,
)
response = outputs[0][input_ids.shape[-1]:]
print(tokenizer.decode(response, skip_special_tokens=True))

Chat Template

We use the Llama 3 chat template.

{% set loop_messages = messages %}{% for message in loop_messages %}{% set content = '<|start_header_id|>' + message['role'] + '<|end_header_id|>\n\n'+ message['content'] | trim + '<|eot_id|>' %}{% if loop.index0 == 0 %}{% set content = bos_token + content %}{% endif %}{{ content }}{% endfor %}{% if add_generation_prompt %}{{ '<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>\n\n' }}{% endif %}

Intended Uses & Limitations

This model is experimental and might not be fully evaluated for all use cases. Developers should assess risks in the context of their specific applications.
