Model Overview

This model, huggingFacing/qwen2.5-7b-to-1.5b-liftkd-v8-gate-only-paper100k-step1500-seed10, is a 1.5 billion parameter language model resulting from a knowledge distillation process. It was created by distilling knowledge from the larger Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct teacher model into a Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct student initialization.

Key Distillation Details

  • Distillation Method: Employs a token-level gap gate mechanism, specifically without influence functions, as part of the lift_v8_gate_only variant.
  • Training Data: Trained on 96,000 examples from the lift_paper_en_natural_v1/100k dataset, with an additional 2,000-example controller split.
  • Training Protocol: Utilized a fully on-policy GKD (Generative Knowledge Distillation) objective over 1,500 optimizer steps.
  • Optimization: Trained with AdamW optimizer, a cosine learning rate schedule from 1e-5 to 1e-7, and a weight decay of 1e-2.
  • Sampling: During training, sampling used a temperature of 0.9 and generated at most 128 tokens.

Intended Use

This model is designed for scenarios where a smaller, more efficient language model is required, benefiting from the knowledge transferred from a larger Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct model. Its specific distillation approach aims to maintain performance while significantly reducing parameter count.
