Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Conceptizer

Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Conceptizer is built using artificial intelligence technology from the Technology Innovation Institute.

LoRA adapters for Falcon3-7B-Instruct from the paper Conceptizer: Next-Token Prediction Is Not All You Need (Haoran Zheng and Chen Shani).

Conceptizer adds a fixed vocabulary of units of meaning alongside the model's tokenizer, so post-training rewards different wordings of the same meaning, such as safety, protection and security, not only the exact next word. The concepts enter only the training loss; the adapters generate ordinary text.

In the paper, Conceptizer gives the lowest held-out perplexity at concept-target positions against all three baselines and improves knowledge and sentiment tasks, while staying comparable on commonsense.

Usage

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/Falcon3-7B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("tiiuae/Falcon3-7B-Instruct", dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto")
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(model, "FlyinGodzilla/Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Conceptizer")

The paper used transformers 5.0 and peft 0.19. The repository holds the paper's three training seeds: seed 0 loads by default, and seeds 37 and 42 load with subfolder="seed37" or subfolder="seed42".

Training

Rank-16 LoRA post-training on FineWeb-Edu text for 50,000 steps, with next-token prediction, the concept loss and a retention loss that keeps the model close to the base model; the paper has the details. To train your own model with Conceptizer, the Conceptizer repository has the code, the concept vocabulary, the training data and the commands.
