FineWeb-HQ is a high-quality, model-filtered pretraining dataset derived as a subset of FineWeb. FineWeb-HQ was created by selecting the top 10% of FineWeb documents based on a deep learning classifier trained to identify structured and knowledge-rich samples. This classifier uses XLM-RoBERTa embeddings to score documents.
To validate our approach, we pretrained 1B-parameter LLM models with a Llama-like architecture across multiple… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/epfml/FineWeb-HQ.
