This repo contains a low-rank adapter (LoRA) for LLaMA-7b fit on the Stanford-Alpaca-52k and databricks-dolly-15k data in Romanian.

Dataset Creation

English Instructions: The English instuctions are obtained from alpaca-52k, and dolly-15k.
Instruction Translation: The instructions (and inputs) are translated into the target languages using Google Translation API (conducted on April 2023).
Output Generation: We generate output from gpt-3.5-turbo for each language (conducted on April 2023).

Training Parameters

The code for training the model is provided in our github, which is adapted from Alpaca-LoRA. This version of the weights was trained with the following hyperparameters:

Epochs: 8
Batch size: 128
Cutoff length: 512
Learning rate: 3e-4
Lora r: 16
Lora target modules: q_proj, v_proj,

That is:

python finetune.py \
    --base_model='decapoda-research/llama-7b-hf' \
    --num_epochs=8 \
    --cutoff_len=1024 \
    --group_by_length \
    --output_dir='./bactrian-ro-7b-lora' \
    --lora_target_modules='[q_proj,v_proj]' \
    --lora_r=16 \
    --micro_batch_size=32

Instructions for running it can be found at https://github.com/MBZUAI-nlp/Bactrian-X.

Discussion of Biases

(1) Translation bias; (2) Potential English-culture bias in the translated dataset.
