h-j-han/Mistral-7B-VocADT-50k-Latin

VocADT is a solution for vocabulary adaptation using adapter modules that are trained to learn the optimal linear combination of existing embeddings while keeping the model’s weights fixed. VocADT offers a flexible and scalable solution without requiring external resources or language constraints.

New Vocabulary Adapted Models

Only the input/output embeddings are replaced, while all other original weights of base model remain fixed. These are the merged version: after training the adapters, we merge the original embeddings with the adapter to generate the new embeddings.

Name	Adapted Model	Base Model	New Vocab Size	Focused Languages
VocADT-Latin	h-j-han/Mistral-7B-VocADT-50k-Latin	Mistral	50k	Swahili (sw), Indonesian (id), Estonian (et), Haitian Creole (ht), English (en)
VocADT-Mixed	h-j-han/Mistral-7B-VocADT-50k-Mixed	Mistral	50k	Korean (ko), Greek (el), Russian (ru), Bulgarian (bg), English (en)

Quick Start

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# model_name = "mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1 # Base Model
model_name = "h-j-han/Mistral-7B-VocADT-50k-Latin" # Vocabulary Adapted Model
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

prefix = "\nEnglish: Hello!\nSwahili: Habari!\nEnglish: What's your name?\nSwahili: Jina lako ni nani?\nEnglish: "
line = "My name is Amani."
suffix = f"\nSwahili:"
prompt = prefix + line + suffix

inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=5)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

# Base Model Output: "Sijui nani"      # Wrong output and need more tokens to complete
# VocADT Output: "Jina langu ni Amani." # Complete and good output within 5 tokens
