Bactrian-X: Multilingual Replicable Instruction-Following Models with Low-Rank Adaptation

arXiv ·

MBZUAI releases Bactrian-X, a multilingual parallel dataset of 3.4 million instruction-response pairs across 52 languages. They trained low-rank adaptation (LoRA) adapters using this dataset, creating lightweight, replaceable components for large language models. Experiments show the LoRA-based models outperform vanilla and existing instruction-tuned models in multilingual settings.

Fined tuned across languages: improving LLM instruction following beyond English

MBZUAI ·

MBZUAI researchers created Bactrian-X, a new dataset to improve LLM instruction following in low-resource languages. The dataset leverages instruction tuning, pairing instructions in various languages with expected responses. Bactrian-X builds upon existing open-source instruction tuning models. Why it matters: This work aims to democratize access to LLMs by enabling users to interact with them in their native languages, even when English proficiency is limited.
