Gaperon-24B Checkpoints

This repository contains intermediate training checkpoints for Gaperon-24B, a bilingual (French-English) language model.

For full model details, training procedure, and evaluation results, see the main model card: almanach/Gaperon-1125-24B

Available Checkpoints

Checkpoints are stored as branches (revisions) in this repository. Each branch corresponds to a training step.

List Available Checkpoints

python

from huggingface_hub import list_repo_refs

refs = list_repo_refs("almanach/Gaperon-24B-ckpts")
for branch in refs.branches:
    print(branch.name)

Loading a Checkpoint

Using Transformers

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# Load a specific checkpoint by revision
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "almanach/Gaperon-24B-ckpts",
    revision="step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4",  # Replace with desired checkpoint
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto"
)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(
    "almanach/Gaperon-24B-ckpts",
    revision="step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4"
)

Download Files Locally

Using the CLI:

bash

# Download a specific checkpoint
huggingface-cli download almanach/Gaperon-24B-ckpts --revision step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4 --local-dir ./checkpoint-step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4

Using Python:

python

from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download

snapshot_download(
    repo_id="almanach/Gaperon-24B-ckpts",
    revision="step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4",
    local_dir="./checkpoint-step-477000_tokens-2000B-phase4"
