</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
We introduce **SeaLLMs-v3**, the latest series of the SeaLLMs (Large Language Models for Southeast Asian languages) family. It achieves state-of-the-art performance among models with similar sizes, excelling across a diverse array of tasks such as world knowledge, mathematical reasoning, translation, and instruction following. In the meantime, it was specifically enhanced to be more trustworthy, exhibiting reduced hallucination and providing safe responses, particularly in queries closed related to Southeast Asian culture. |
|
|
|
## 🔥 Highlights |
|
|
|
- State-of-the-art performance compared to open-source models of similar sizes, evaluated across various dimensions such as human exam questions, instruction-following, mathematics, and translation. |
|
- Significantly enhanced instruction-following capability, especially in multi-turn settings. |
|
- Ensures safety in usage with significantly reduced instances of hallucination and sensitivity to local contexts. |
|
|
|
## Uses |
|
|
|
SeaLLMs is tailored for handling a wide range of languages spoken in the SEA region, including English, Chinese, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Tagalog, Malay, Burmese, Khmer, Lao, Tamil, and Javanese. |
|
|
|
This page introduces the **SeaLLMs-v3-7B** model, which can be fine-tuned for your specific downstream tasks, especially in SEA languages. |
|
Note that this is a base model, if you are looking for a model that can be directly applicable to your downstream applications, you may want to check the chat version model: **[SeaLLMs-v3-7B-Chat](https://huggingface.co/SeaLLMs/SeaLLMs-v3-7B-Chat)**. |
|
|
|
## Evaluation |
|
|
|
We evaluate SeaLLMs-v3-7B using human exam questions and mathematics. |
|
|
|
#### Multilingual World Knowledge - M3Exam |
|
|
|
[M3Exam](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.05179) consists of local exam questions collected from each country. It reflects the model's world knowledge (e.g., with language or social science subjects) and reasoning abilities (e.g., with mathematics or natural science subjects). |

|
|
|
#### Multilingual World Knowledge - MMLU |
|
|
|
[MMLU](https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.03300) questions are translated to SEA languages for evaluation, which primarily tests the cross-lingual alignment of the model as the required knowledge is still mainly Western-focused. |

#### Multilingual Math - MGSM |
|
|
|
We evaluate the multilingual math capability by utilizing the [MGSM](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03057) dataset with a **5-shot prompting** approach. MGSM originally contains English, Chinese and Thai testing sets only, we use Google Translate to translate the same English questions into other SEA languages. Note that we adopt the tradition of each country to represent the number, e.g., in Indonesian and Vietnamese, dots are used as thousands separators and commas as decimal separators, the opposite of the English system. |
