# MC^2Llama-13B
[Github Repo](https://github.com/luciusssss/mc2_corpus)


We continually pretrain [llama_chinese_13b](https://huggingface.co/quzhe/llama_chinese_13B) with [MC^2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/pkupie/mc2_corpus), which supports Tibetan, Uyghur, Kazakh in the Kazakh Arabic script, and Mongolian in the traditional Mongolian script.


See details in the [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.08348).

*We have also released another model trained on MC^2: [MC^2XLMR-large](https://huggingface.co/pkupie/mc2-xlmr-large).*

## Usage
the model and tokenizer can be loaded via:
```python
from transformers import LlamaForCausalLM, LlamaTokenizer

tokenizer = LlamaTokenizer.from_pretrained("pkupie/mc2-llama-13b")
model = LlamaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("pkupie/mc2-llama-13b")
```
