# SEA-LION |
|
|
|
SEA-LION is a collection of Large Language Models (LLMs) which has been pretrained and instruct-tuned for the Southeast Asia (SEA) region. |
|
The size of the models range from 3 billion to 7 billion parameters. |
|
This is the card for the SEA-LION 7B base model. |
|
|
|
SEA-LION stands for <i>Southeast Asian Languages In One Network</i>. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Model Details |
|
|
|
### Model Description |
|
|
|
The SEA-LION model is a significant leap forward in the field of Natural Language Processing, |
|
specifically trained to understand the SEA regional context. |
|
|
|
SEA-LION is built on the robust MPT architecture and has a vocabulary size of 256K. |
|
|
|
For tokenization, the model employs our custom SEABPETokenizer, which is specially tailored for SEA languages, ensuring optimal model performance. |
|
|
|
The training data for SEA-LION encompasses 980B tokens. |
