## Model Details

| Size | Training Tokens | Layers | Hidden Size | Attention Heads | Context Length |
|------|-----------------|--------|-------------|-----------------|----------------|
| 7B   | 2.5T            | 32     | 4096        | 32              | 2048           |


### Model Description

- **Developed by:** DataComp for Language Models (DCLM) Team
- **Model type:** Decoder-only Transformer language model
- **Language(s):** English (primarily)
- **License:** Apple Sample Code License
- **Contact:** contact@datacomp.ai
- **Date:** June 2024

### Model Sources

- **Repository:** https://github.com/mlfoundations/dclm
- **Dataset:** https://huggingface.co/datasets/mlfoundations/dclm-baseline-1.0
- **Paper:** [DataComp-LM: In search of the next generation of training sets for language models](https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.11794)


## Using Model

First install open_lm

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/mlfoundations/open_lm.git
```

Then:
```python
from open_lm.hf import *
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("apple/DCLM-Baseline-7B")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("apple/DCLM-Baseline-7B")

inputs = tokenizer(["Machine learning is"], return_tensors="pt")
gen_kwargs = {"max_new_tokens": 50, "top_p": 0.8, "temperature": 0.8, "do_sample": True, "repetition_penalty": 1.1}
output = model.generate(inputs['input_ids'], **gen_kwargs)
output = tokenizer.decode(output[0].tolist(), skip_special_tokens=True)
print(output)
```






### Training Details

The model was trained using the following setup:

- **Architecture:** Decoder-only Transformer 
- **Framework:** PyTorch with OpenLM
- **Optimizer:** AdamW
- **Learning Rate:** 2e-3 (peak)
- **Weight Decay:** 0.05
- **Batch Size:** 2048 sequences
- **Sequence Length:** 2048 tokens
- **Total Training Tokens:** 2.5T
- **Hardware:** Trained on H100 GPUs

For more detailed training information, please refer to Section 3.4 and Appendix F of the DCLM paper.
To ensure our trained model is broadly useful, including for math and coding tasks, we combine our 3.8T [DCLM-BASELINE](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mlfoundations/dclm-baseline-1.0)  with the [StarCoder](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/starcoderdata)  and [ProofPile2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/EleutherAI/proof-pile-2) data to arrive at a 4.1T token dataset.

## Limitations and Biases

While DCLM-Baseline-7B demonstrates strong performance across a range of tasks, it's important to note:

1. The model may exhibit biases present in its training data, which is derived from web crawl data.
2. It has not undergone specific alignment or safety fine-tuning, so outputs should be used with caution.
3. Performance on tasks not included in the evaluation suite may vary.
4. The model's knowledge is limited to its training data cutoff date.

## Ethical Considerations

Users should be aware that this model, like all large language models, can potentially generate harmful or biased content. It should not be used for making decisions about individuals or in sensitive applications without appropriate safeguards and human oversight.
