Falcon3-7B-Instruct

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

Model Details

Architecture
- Transformer based causal decoder only architecture
- 28 decoder blocks
- Grouped query attention (GQA) for faster inference: 12 query heads and 4 key value heads
- Wider head dimension: 256
- High RoPE value to support long context understanding: 1000042
- Uses SwiGLU and RMSNorm
- 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
Postrained on 1.2 million samples of STEM, conversations, code, safety and function call data
Supports EN, FR, ES, PT
Developed by Technology Innovation Institute
