# Pretrain-Qwen-1.2B

[paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.17215) | [code](https://github.com/thu-coai/MiniPLM)

**Pretrain-Qwen-1.2B** is a 1.2B model with Qwen achitecture conventionally pre-trained from scratch on [the Pile](https://huggingface.co/datasets/monology/pile-uncopyrighted) for 50B tokens.

We also open-source the tokenized [pre-training corpus](https://huggingface.co/datasets/MiniLLM/pile-tokenized) for reproducibility.

**It is used as the baseline for [MiniLLM-Qwen-1.2B](https://huggingface.co/MiniLLM/MiniPLM-Qwen-1.2B)**

## Evaluation

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