Model Description

LLaMAX3-8B is a multilingual language base model, developed through continued pre-training on Llama3, and supports over 100 languages. LLaMAX3-8B can serve as a base model to support downstream multilingual tasks but without instruct-following capability.

We further fine-tune LLaMAX3-8B on Alpaca dataset to enhance its instruct-following capabilities. The model is available at https://huggingface.co/LLaMAX/LLaMAX3-8B-Alpaca.

Supported Languages

Akrikaans (af), Amharic (am), Arabic (ar), Armenian (hy), Assamese (as), Asturian (ast), Azerbaijani (az), Belarusian (be), Bengali (bn), Bosnian (bs), Bulgarian (bg), Burmese (my), Catalan (ca), Cebuano (ceb), Chinese Simpl (zho), Chinese Trad (zho), Croatian (hr), Czech (cs), Danish (da), Dutch (nl), English (en), Estonian (et), Filipino (tl), Finnish (fi), French (fr), Fulah (ff), Galician (gl), Ganda (lg), Georgian (ka), German (de), Greek (el), Gujarati (gu), Hausa (ha), Hebrew (he), Hindi (hi), Hungarian (hu), Icelandic (is), Igbo (ig), Indonesian (id), Irish (ga), Italian (it), Japanese (ja), Javanese (jv), Kabuverdianu (kea), Kamba (kam), Kannada (kn), Kazakh (kk), Khmer (km), Korean (ko), Kyrgyz (ky), Lao (lo), Latvian (lv), Lingala (ln), Lithuanian (lt), Luo (luo), Luxembourgish (lb), Macedonian (mk), Malay (ms), Malayalam (ml), Maltese (mt), Maori (mi), Marathi (mr), Mongolian (mn), Nepali (ne), Northern Sotho (ns), Norwegian (no), Nyanja (ny), Occitan (oc), Oriya (or), Oromo (om), Pashto (ps), Persian (fa), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Punjabi (pa), Romanian (ro), Russian (ru), Serbian (sr), Shona (sn), Sindhi (sd), Slovak (sk), Slovenian (sl), Somali (so), Sorani Kurdish (ku), Spanish (es), Swahili (sw), Swedish (sv), Tajik (tg), Tamil (ta), Telugu (te), Thai (th), Turkish (tr), Ukrainian (uk), Umbundu (umb), Urdu (ur), Uzbek (uz), Vietnamese (vi), Welsh (cy), Wolof (wo), Xhosa (xh), Yoruba (yo), Zulu (zu)
