# CoALa-1 (183M Multilingual Llama-Base)
CoALa-1 is a highly efficient, multilingual base model with **183 million parameters**. Built on a modern **Llama-based architecture**, it is designed to deliver maximum performance in a compact size, making it one of the top-performing models in the sub-200M parameter class.
## Key Highlights
* **Architecture:** Llama-based (utilizing RoPE, RMSNorm, and SiLU) for superior stability and reasoning compared to older GPT-2 structures.
* **Top 3 Performance:** In its weight class (<200M), CoALa-1 outperforms industry standards like Meta's OPT-125M and competes directly with OpenAI's GPT-2 Small.
* **Multilingual Power:** Trained from scratch on high-quality Wikipedia data in **7 languages** (English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Russian).
* **Custom Tokenizer:** Features a 64,000 vocab Byte-level BPE tokenizer, optimized for multilingual efficiency.
## ⚠️ Important Note: Base Model vs. Instruct Model
CoALa-1 is a **Base Model (Pretrained)**. It has been trained to predict the next token on a massive Wikipedia corpus but has **not** yet undergone Instruction Fine-Tuning (SFT) or RLHF.
**What this means for users:**
- The model will **not** answer questions like a chatbot (e.g., "How are you?").
- Instead, it will **continue a given text** in a neutral, encyclopedic style.
## Evaluation Results
CoALa-1 was evaluated using the `lm-evaluation-harness`. It shows a strong performance in factual knowledge compared to other models in its weight class.
| Benchmark | Metric | CoALa-1 (183M) | GPT-2 (124M) | OPT-125M |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **ARC-Easy** | acc_norm | **28.87%** | 27.00% | 24.50% |
| **HellaSwag** | acc_norm | **26.96%** | 28.50% | 26.00% |
