Sheared-LLaMA-1.3B is a model pruned and further pre-trained from [meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf). We dynamically load data from different domains in the [RedPajama dataset](https://github.com/togethercomputer/RedPajama-Data) to prune and contune pre-train the model. We use 0.4B tokens for pruning and 50B tokens for continued pre-training the pruned model. This model can be loaded with HuggingFace via
```
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("princeton-nlp/Sheared-LLaMA-1.3B")
```
- Smaller-scale
- Same vocabulary as LLaMA1 and LLaMA2
- Derived with a budget of 50B tokens by utilizing existing strong LLMs
## Downstream Tasks
We evaluate on an extensive set of downstream tasks including reasoning, reading comprehension, language modeling and knowledge intensive tasks. Our Sheared-LLaMA models outperform existing large language models.
