TransNormerLLM3 -- A Faster and Better LLM
Introduction
This official repository unveils the TransNormerLLM3 model along with its open-source weights for every 50 billion tokens processed during pre-training.
TransNormerLLM evolving from TransNormer, standing out as the first LLM within the linear transformer architecture. Additionally, it distinguishes itself by being the first non-Transformer LLM to exceed both traditional Transformer and other efficient Transformer models (such as, RetNet and Mamba) in terms of speed and performance.
TransNormerLLM3
- TransNormerLLM3-15B features 14.83 billion parameters. It is structured with 42 layers, includes 40 attention heads, and has a total embedding size of 5120.
- TransNormerLLM3-15B is purely intergrated with Lightning Attention-2, which can maintain a stable TGS during training of unlimited sequence lengths, up until encountering firm limitations like GPU memory constraints.
- Titoken tokenizer is used with a total vocabulary size of about 100,000.
