## Model Details
**SauerkrautLM-v2-14b-SFT**
- **Model Type:** SauerkrautLM-v2-14b-SFT is a fine-tuned Model based on [Qwen/Qwen2.5-14B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-14B)
- **Language(s):** German, English
- **License:** Apache 2.0
- **Contact:** [VAGO solutions](https://vago-solutions.ai)

## Training Procedure

This model represents a significant advancement in our fine-tuning methodology, utilizing a two-phase Spectrum Fine-Tuning approach:

**Phase 1 (25% Layer Targeting)**:
- Training on 0.6B tokens with four distinct components:
  1. Mathematics data (curated using proprietary classifier)
  2. English performance data (from Sauerkraut-v1)
  3. High-quality German training data (from Sauerkraut-v1)
  4. Function calling data (from Sauerkraut-v2)

**Phase 2 (20% Layer Targeting)**:
- Training on additional 0.6B tokens with partial overlap:
  1. New mathematics data (classifier-selected)
  2. New English performance data (from Sauerkraut-v2)
  3. New German training data (from Sauerkraut-v2)
  4. Function calling data (from Sauerkraut-v2)

**Dataset Composition**:
- Carefully curated mathematical content using a proprietary classification model
- Premium multilingual data from both Sauerkraut-v1 and Sauerkraut-v2
- Specialized function calling training data
- High-quality German-English content across various domains

## Objective and Results

This release marks the one-year anniversary of SauerkrautLM, showcasing our most advanced training methodology to date. The two-phase Spectrum Fine-Tuning approach allows for more nuanced learning while maintaining efficiency in resource usage. The model demonstrates significant improvements in:

- Mathematical reasoning capabilities
- Function calling proficiency
- Multilingual performance
- Instruction following
- Common-sense reasoning
