# polylm_13b_ft_alpaca_clean_dutch

## Model description

This adapter model is a fine-tuned version of [DAMO-NLP-MT/polylm-13b](https://huggingface.co/DAMO-NLP-MT/polylm-13b).
It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:
- Loss: 1.3355

Finetuning was performed on the Dutch [BramVanroy/alpaca-cleaned-dutch](https://www.huggingface.co/datasets/BramVanroy/alpaca-cleaned-dutch) dataset which contains 52K of records with instruction following-data translated from English to Dutch.

See [DAMO-NLP-MT/polylm-13b](https://huggingface.co/DAMO-NLP-MT/polylm-13b) for all information about the base model.

## Intended uses & limitations

The PolyLM-13B model was trained on 18 languages. The primary focus was to create a multi-lingual Open LLM.
Dutch was one of those 18 languages. For training the model a diverse combination of multi-lingual datasets was used. 

The generated output and performance of this model for the Dutch language is very likely not always comparable to the various Open-Llama models that have been finetuned on English Alpaca datasets.

The primary intention of this finetuned model is to explore and research the use of the Dutch language in combination with an Open LLM model.

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations

The information below is copied from the base model's [official model card](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.06018.pdf).
This applies also to the finetuned model.

> Our contributions are fully methodological: adding the support of multilingualism to LLM during training and SFT phases. It is unavoidable that PolyLM might exhibit several common deficiencies of language models, e.g. hallucination and toxicity. PolyLM should not be used directly in any application, without a prior assessment of safety and fairness concerns specific to the application.

## Training and evaluation data

This model was trained on the [BramVanroy/alpaca-cleaned-dutch](https://www.huggingface.co/datasets/BramVanroy/alpaca-cleaned-dutch) dataset.

The dataset is the Dutch translation of the English Alpaca Cleaned instruction dataset.

Based on the dataset license only Non-Commercial use is allowed. Commercial use is strictly forbidden.

## Training procedure

This model was finetuned with a QLoRA setup on a Google Colab A100 GPU in about 7.0 hours.

The notebook used for training can be found here: [Training Notebook](https://github.com/RobinSmits/Dutch-LLMs/blob/main/PolyLM_13B_Alpaca_Clean_Dutch_Qlora.ipynb)
