## Training Procedure

This model showcases the potential of resource-efficient fine-tuning of large language models using Spectrum Fine-Tuning. Here's a brief on the procedure:

**Fine-tuning on German-English Data**: 

- Utilized Spectrum Fine-Tuning, targeting 25% of the model's layers
- Introduced the model to a unique German-English Sauerkraut Mix v2
- Implemented a bespoke, precision-engineered fine-tuning approach

**Sauerkraut Mix v2**:

- Premium Dataset for Language Models, focusing on German and English
- Meticulously selected, high-quality dataset combinations
- Cutting-edge synthetic datasets created using proprietary, high-precision generation techniques

## Objective and Results

The primary goal of this training was to demonstrate that with Spectrum Fine-Tuning targeting 25% of the layers, a small 2 billion parameter model can enhance the capabilities while using a fraction of the resources of the classic fine-tuning approach.

The model has significantly improved skills in instruction-following, common-sense reasoning and problem-solving. Further it improved in multilinguality by performing noticably better in MMLU, not only in German and English, but also in many other languages.

**Spectrum Fine-Tuning can efficiently enhance a large language model's capabilities while preserving the majority of its previously acquired knowledge.**
