Bielik-7B-v0.1

The Bielik-7B-v0.1 is a generative text model featuring 7 billion parameters, meticulously evolved from its predecessor, the Mistral-7B-v0.1, through processing of over 70 billion tokens. Forementioned model stands as a testament to the unique collaboration between the open-science/open-souce project SpeakLeash and the High Performance Computing (HPC) center: ACK Cyfronet AGH. Developed and trained on Polish text corpora, which has been cherry-picked and processed by the SpeakLeash team, this endeavor leverages Polish large-scale computing infrastructure, specifically within the PLGrid environment, and more precisely, the HPC centers: ACK Cyfronet AGH. The creation and training of the Bielik-7B-v0.1 was propelled by the support of computational grant number PLG/2024/016951, conducted on the Helios supercomputer, enabling the use of cutting-edge technology and computational resources essential for large-scale machine learning processes. As a result, the model exhibits an exceptional ability to understand and process the Polish language, providing accurate responses and performing a variety of linguistic tasks with high precision.

Model

Bielik-7B-v0.1 has been trained with the use of an original open source framework called ALLaMo implemented by Krzysztof Ociepa. This framework allows users to train language models with architecture similar to LLaMA and Mistral in fast and efficient way.

The model training was conducted on the Helios Supercomputer at the ACK Cyfronet AGH, utilizing 256 NVidia GH200 cards while achieving a throughput exceeding 9200 tokens/gpu/second.

The training dataset was composed of Polish texts collected and made available through the SpeakLeash project. We used over 36 billion tokens for two epochs of training.

Quality evaluation

A XGBoost classification model was prepared and created to evaluate the quality of texts in native Polish language. It is based on 93 features, such as the ratio of out-of-vocabulary words to all words (OOVs), the number of nouns, verbs, average sentence length etc. The model outputs the category of a given document (either HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW) along with the probability. This approach allows implementation of dedicated pipeline to choose documents, from which we've used entries with HIGH quality index and probability exceeding 90%.

This filtration and appropriate selection of texts enable the provision of a condensed and high-quality database of texts in Polish for training purposes.

Quickstart

This model can be easily loaded using the AutoModelForCausalLM functionality.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

model_name = "speakleash/Bielik-7B-v0.1"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

In order to reduce the memory usage, you can use smaller precision (bfloat16).

import torch

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)

And then you can use Hugging Face Pipelines to generate text:

import transformers

text = "Najważniejszym celem człowieka na ziemi jest"

pipeline = transformers.pipeline("text-generation", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
sequences = pipeline(max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, top_k=50, eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id, text_inputs=text)
for seq in sequences:
    print(f"Result: {seq['generated_text']}")

Generated output:

Najważniejszym celem człowieka na ziemi jest życie w pokoju, harmonii i miłości. Dla każdego z nas bardzo ważne jest, aby otaczać się kochanymi osobami.

Evaluation

Models have been evaluated on Open PL LLM Leaderboard 5-shot. The benchmark evaluates models in NLP tasks like sentiment analysis, categorization, text classification but does not test chatting skills. Here are presented:

  • Average - average score among all tasks normalized by baseline scores
  • Reranking - reranking task, commonly used in RAG
  • Reader (Generator) - open book question answering task, commonly used in RAG
  • Perplexity (lower is better) - as a bonus, does not correlate with other scores and should not be used for model comparison

As of April 3, 2024, the following table showcases the current scores of pretrained and continuously pretrained models according to the Open PL LLM Leaderboard, evaluated in a 5-shot setting:

Bielik-7B-Instruct-v0.1 39.28 61.89 86.00 277.92

As you can see, Bielik-7B-v0.1 does not have the best Average score, but it has some clear advantages, e.g. the best score in the RAG Reader task.

The results in the above table were obtained without utilizing instruction templates for instructional models, instead treating them like base models. This approach could skew the results, as instructional models are optimized with specific instructions in mind.

Limitations and Biases

Bielik-7B-v0.1 is not intended for deployment without fine-tuning. It should not be used for human-facing interactions without further guardrails and user consent.

Bielik-7B-v0.1 can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate data. Bielik-7B-v0.1 was trained on various public datasets. While great efforts have been taken to clear the training data, it is possible that this model can generate lewd, false, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.
