LLaMA3 (8B) model instruction finetuned to understand and respond in Sinhala language. `meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct` is finetuned on a reletively large dataset in |
|
Sinhala compiled by translating English datasets such as ELI5 and Alpaca. The dataset in hosted in Hugging Face Datasets hub [(`sinhala-instruction-finetune-large`)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ihalage/sinhala-instruction-finetune-large) |
|
|
|
The original model is 4-bit quantized and finetuned with a causal language modelling (CLM) objective by adding LoRA adapters with a rank of 16 and a scaling factor of 32. |
|
|
|
The finetuned `llama3-sinhala` model generates better responses in Sinhala compared to the original instruction finetuned model released by Meta. |
