šŸš€ Excited to share our technical report on the Southeast Asian multilingual model Sailor2 and its latest updates!

Our 49-page report details Sailor2's development journey, including multilingual data cleaning, small model data mixture simulations, multi-stage continual pre-training, multi-stage post-training, and multi-cultural multi-lingual evaluations. Sailor2 aims to streamline the multilingual model pre-training process efficiently for the community.

🧭 We highlight Sailor2's impressive performance in low-resource language translation scenarios and its cultural understanding advantages in Southeast Asia, promoting practical applications for regional languages.

Model updates include:Ā 
šŸ’” More precise outputs: Reduced redundancy in model outputs through refined post-training data and optimization techniques.Ā 
🌈 Handling longer texts: Expanded to handle up to 128K context length in Southeast Asian languages through long-text training. 
āš”ļø Faster inference: Achieved 2.5x faster inference speed with speculative decoding.Ā 
šŸŒŖļø More model sizes: Introduced new sizes of 3B and 14B through model pruning.

🌟 All models are Apache-licensed for commercial use; development tools (code, resources) are open-source.
