## VAGO solutions SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO
Introducing **SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO** – the pinnacle of German language model technology! 
Crafted through the **merging** of **[Teknium's OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B](https://huggingface.co/teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B)** and **[Open-Orca's Mistral-7B-OpenOrca](https://huggingface.co/Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca)** and **uniquely fine-tuned with the Sauerkraut dataset.** 
SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO represents a breakthrough in language modeling, achieving an optimal balance between extensive German data and essential international sources. 
This ensures the model not only excels in understanding the nuances of the German language but also retains its global capabilities.
Harnessing the innovative power of the **gradient SLERP method from MergeKit**, we've achieved a groundbreaking fusion of two of the most best performing 7B models based on the Mistral framework.
This merge  has allowed us to combine the best features of both models, creating an unparalleled synergy. 
Coupled with the German Sauerkraut dataset, which consists of a mix of augmented and translated data, we have successfully taught the English-speaking merged model the intricacies of the German language.
This was achieved *without the typical loss of core competencies often associated with fine-tuning in another language of models previously trained mainly in English.*
Our approach ensures that the model retains its original strengths while acquiring a profound understanding of German, **setting a new benchmark in bilingual language model proficiency.**

## Model Details
**SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO**
- **Model Type:** SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO is an auto-regressive language model based on the transformer architecture 
- **Language(s):** English, German
- **License:** APACHE 2.0
- **Contact:** [Website](https://vago-solutions.de/#Kontakt) [David Golchinfar](mailto:golchinfar@vago-solutions.de)

### Training Dataset:

SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO was trained with mix of German data augmentation and translated data. 
We found, that only a simple translation of training data can lead to unnatural German phrasings. 
Data augmentation techniques were used to grant grammatical, syntactical correctness and a more natural German wording in our training data. 

### Merge Procedure:

SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO was merged on 1 A100 with [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).
The merged model contains [OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B](https://huggingface.co/teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B) and [Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca](https://huggingface.co/Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca).
We applied the gradient SLERP method.
