###  Model Description

This HF repository hosts instruction fine-tuned multilingual BLOOM model using the parallel instruction dataset called Bactrain-X in 52 languages. 
We progressively add a language during instruction fine-tuning at each time, and train 52 models in total. Then, we evaluate those models in three multilingual benchmarks. 

Please refer to our paper for more details.

#### Instruction tuning details
* Base model: [BLOOM 7B1](https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom-7b1)
* Instruction languages: English, Chinese, Afrikaans, Arabic, Azerbaijani, Bengali, Czech, German, Spanish, Estonian, Farsi, Finnish, French, Galician, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Croatian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Georgian, Kazakh, Khmer, Korean, Lithuanian, Latvian, Macedonian, Malayalam, Mongolian, Marathi, Burmese, Nepali, Dutch, Polish, Pashto, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Sinhala, Slovenian, Swedish, Swahili, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Tagalog, Turkish, Ukrainian

* Training method: full-parameter fine-tuning.

#### Usage
The model checkpoint should be loaded using `transformers` library.

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("MaLA-LM/lucky52-bloom-7b1-no-49")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("MaLA-LM/lucky52-bloom-7b1-no-49")
```
