# SEA-LION
SEA-LION is a collection of LLMs which has been pretrained and instruct-tuned for the Southeast Asia (SEA) region.
The models range from 3 billion to 7 billion parameters.
This is the card for the SEA-LION 7B model.
SEA-LION stands for <i>Southeast Asia Languages In One Network</i>.
## Model Details
### Model Description
The SEA-LION model is a significant leap forward in the field of natural language processing,
specifically trained to understand Southeast Asia (SEA) regional context.
SEA-LION is built on the robust MPT architecture and utilize a vocabulary size of 256K.
The model employs our custom SEABPETokenizer for tokenization.
Our SEABPETokenizer is specially tailored for SEA languages, ensuring optimal model performance.
The training data for SEA-LION encompasses 980B tokens.
- **Developed by:** Products Pillar, AI Singapore
- **Funded by:** Singapore NRF
- **Model type:** Decoder
- **Languages:** English, Chinese, Indonesian, Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, Filipino, Tamil, Burmese, Khmer, Lao
- **License:** MIT License
