Alpagasus-2-7b Overview

mlabonne/alpagasus-2-7b is a 7 billion parameter language model based on the Llama-2-7b-hf architecture. It has been fine-tuned by mlabonne using the QLoRA method with 4-bit precision, making it efficient for deployment on resource-constrained hardware. The model's training utilized a curated, high-quality subset of 9,000 samples from the larger Alpaca dataset, specifically designed to enhance instruction-following capabilities.
