What EuroLLM is

Model updated on September 24 Model Card for EuroLLM-1.7B-Instruct This is the model card for the first instruction tuned model of the EuroLLM series: EuroLLM-1.7B-Instruct. You can also check the pre-trained version: EuroLLM-1.7B. - Developed by: Unbabel, Instituto Superior Técnico, Instituto de Telecomunicações, University of Edinburgh, Aveni, University of Paris-Saclay, University of Amsterdam, Naver Labs, Sorbonne Université. - Funded by: European Union. - Model type: A 1.7B parameter instruction tuned multilingual transfomer LLM. - Language(s) (NLP): Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, Galician, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Russian, Turkish, and Ukrainian. - License: Apache License 2.0. Model Details The EuroLLM project has the goal of creating a suite of LLMs capable of understanding and generating text in all European Union languages as well as some additional relevant languages. EuroLLM-1.7B is a 1.7B parameter model trained on 4 trillion tokens divided across the considered languages and several data sources: Web data, parallel data (en-xx and xx-en), and high-quality datasets. EuroLLM-1.7B-Instruct was further instruction tuned on EuroBlocks, an instruction tuning dataset with focus on general instruction-following and machine translation. Model Description EuroLLM uses a standard, dense Transformer architecture: - We use grouped query attention (GQA) with 8 key-value heads, since it has been shown to increase speed at inference time while maintaining downstream performance. - We perform pre-layer normalization, since it improves the training stability, and use the RMSNorm, which is faster. - We use the SwiGLU activation function, since it has been shown to lead to good results on downstream tasks. - We use rotary positional embeddings (RoPE) in every layer, since these have been shown to lead to good performances while allowing the extension of the context length. For pre-training, we use 256 Nvidia H100 GPUs of the Marenostrum 5 supercompu

Using it via the API

Call it like any OpenAI endpoint

Once AxForge deploys eurollm for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (eurollm below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)

$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/chat/completions \
