# lfn_latn_full |
|
|
|
Goldfish is a suite of monolingual language models trained for 350 languages. |
|
This model is the <b>Lingua Franca Nova</b> (Latin script) model trained on 5MB of data (all our data in the language), after accounting for an estimated byte premium of 1.30; content-matched text in Lingua Franca Nova takes on average 1.30x as many UTF-8 bytes to encode as English. |
|
The Goldfish models are trained primarily for comparability across languages and for low-resource languages; Goldfish performance for high-resource languages is not designed to be comparable with modern large language models (LLMs). |
|
|
|
Note: lfn_latn is an [individual language](https://iso639-3.sil.org/code_tables/639/data) code. It is not contained in any macrolanguage codes contained in Goldfish (for script latn). |
|

All training and hyperparameter details are in our paper, [Goldfish: Monolingual Language Models for 350 Languages (Chang et al., 2024)](https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2408.10441). |

## Model details: |
|
|
|
To access all Goldfish model details programmatically, see https://github.com/tylerachang/goldfish/blob/main/model_details.json. |
|
All models are trained with a [CLS] (same as [BOS]) token prepended, and a [SEP] (same as [EOS]) token separating sequences. |
|
For best results, make sure that [CLS] is prepended to your input sequence (see sample usage linked above)! |
