# Description of the Dataset

This release integrates the entire data sequence utilized in the CrystalCoder training. It encompasses data sequences from the three pre-training stages, combining information from two prior works: the [SlimPajama dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cerebras/SlimPajama-627B) and [StarCoder](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/starcoderdata), totaling approximately 1300 billion tokens. These tokens are distributed across three stages, each with distinct weights.

## Stage 1
During this initial stage, half of the [SlimPajama data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cerebras/SlimPajama-627B) is utilized, equivalent to approximately 345 billion tokens.

## Stage 2
In the second stage, the remaining half of the [SlimPajama data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cerebras/SlimPajama-627B) is employed, along with two epochs of [StarCoder data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/starcoderdata). For the StarCoder data, we apply [FIM augmentation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.14255) with an FIM rate of 0.9 and an SPM rate of 0.5. The total token count for this stage is calculated as 0.5 * 690 + 2 * 291, resulting in 927 billion tokens.

## Stage 3
The third stage involves reusing Python and web-related data from the [StarCoder data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/starcoderdata), including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. This data is utilized for training over three epochs, with the application of FIM at a rate of 0.3 alongside an SPM rate of 0.5. The total token count for this stage is 100 billion. Additionally, a small portion of the SlimPajama dataset, excluding the Github part, is also reused, contributing around 10 billion tokens.

### Instruction tuning

To enhance the model's proficiency in real chat scenarios, we utilize a diverse set of instruction tuning datasets, totaling approximately 1 billion tokens. Specifically, our data include [OASST1-guanaco](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openaccess-ai-collective/oasst1-guanaco-extended-sharegpt), [SlimOrca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Open-Orca/SlimOrca), [ShareGPT_V4.3](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Aeala/ShareGPT_Vicuna_unfiltered), [Evol-ShareGPT](https://huggingface.co/datasets/WizardLM/WizardLM_evol_instruct_V2_196k), [CodeAlpaca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lucasmccabe-lmi/CodeAlpaca-20k), [Rosetta Code](https://github.com/sahil280114/codealpaca/blob/master/data/rosetta_alpaca.json), [Evol-CodeAlpaca 1](https://huggingface.co/datasets/theblackcat102/evol-codealpaca-v1), [Evol-CodeAlpaca 2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nickrosh/Evol-Instruct-Code-80k-v1), and a self-generated dataset centered on website creation through the [Alpaca](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/stanford_alpaca) pipeline. We will release the full dataset soon.
