Pretrain-Qwen-500M

paper | code

Pretrain-Qwen-500M is a 500M model with Qwen achitecture conventionally pre-trained from scratch on the Pile for 50B tokens.

We also open-source the tokenized pre-training corpus for reproducibility.

It is used as the baseline for MiniLLM-Qwen-500M

Evaluation

MiniPLM models achieves better performance given the same computation and scales well across model sizes:
