Falcon3-7B-Base

Falcon3 family of Open Foundation Models is a set of pretrained and instruct LLMs ranging from 1B to 10B.

This repository contains the Falcon3-7B-Base. It achieves state of art results (at the time of release) on reasoning, language understanding, instruction following, code and mathematics tasks. Falcon3-7B-Base supports 4 languages (english, french, spanish, portuguese) and a context length up to 32K.

⚠️ This is a raw, pretrained model, which should be further finetuned for most usecases.

Model Details

• Architecture
  • transformer based causal decoder only architecture
  • 28 decoder blocks
  • grouped query attention (GQA) for faster inference: 12 query heads and 4 KV heads
  • wider head dimension: 256
  • high RoPE value to support long context understanding: 1000042
  • 32k context length
  • 131k vocab size
• Pretrained on 14 Teratokens of datasets comprising of web, code, STEM, high quality and mutlilingual data using 1024 H100 GPU chips
• Supports EN, FR, ES, PT
• Developed by Technology Innovation Institute
• License: TII Falcon-LLM License 2.0
• Model Release Date: December 2024

Benchmarks

We report in the following table our internal pipeline benchmarks.

• We use lm-evaluation harness.

• We report raw scores.

• We use same batch-size across all models.
