+
## Overview
|
| 4 |
+
|
| 5 |
+
telecom-1.35M-v2 is a LoRA fine-tuned version of NVIDIA's Nemotron-3-Nano-30B model, specialized for telecommunications and network engineering applications. The model was trained on 1.3M+ telecom domain examples covering 3GPP standards, IETF protocols, network traces, anomaly detection, and network function configuration.
|
| 6 |
+
|
| 7 |
+
This model achieved a **79.3% benchmark score** β a 10% improvement over baseline β while using conservative anti-forgetting training strategies to preserve general capabilities.
|
| 8 |
+
|
| 9 |
+
## What We Did
|
| 10 |
+
|
| 11 |
+
- **Goal**: Create a specialized telecom AI assistant with expert-level knowledge of 3GPP, IETF, ITU, and TM Forum standards

| 121 |
+
2. **HuggingFace Export**: Converted Megatron checkpoint to HF format
|
| 122 |
+
3. **vLLM Deployment**: Served via vLLM with tensor parallelism
|
| 123 |
+
|
| 124 |
+

| 169 |
+
trust_remote_code=True,
|
| 170 |
+

1. **Anti-forgetting strategy works**: Conservative LoRA params (64/128/0.1) with 5e-5 LR preserved general capabilities
|
| 234 |
+
2. **Data quality matters more than quantity**: Improving weak-area examples had more impact than adding more data
|
| 235 |
+
3. **System prompt alignment**: Mismatched system prompts (e.g., "telco expert" for ethics questions) hurt performance
|
| 236 |
+
4. **Mixed datasets**: Combining diverse telecom subcategories in training prevents narrow specialization

## Future Work
|
| 239 |
+
|
| 240 |
+
- **Full SFT**: Bake domain knowledge permanently into base weights
|
| 241 |
+
- **Task-specific LoRA adapters**: Specialized adapters for YAML generation, anomaly detection, etc.
|
| 242 |
+
- **DPO refinement**: Preference optimization for response quality
