In this repository we are introducing a new member of NSQL, SambaCoder-nsql-llama-2-70b. It's based on Meta's original Llama-2 70B model and further pre-trained on a dataset of general SQL queries and then fine-tuned on a dataset composed of text-to-SQL pairs.

Use of this model is governed by the Meta’s Llama 2 Community License Agreement. Please review and accept the license before downloading the model weights and tokenizer

Training Data

The general SQL queries are the SQL subset from The Stack, containing 1M training samples. The labeled text-to-SQL pairs come from the NSText2SQL dataset (https://huggingface.co/datasets/NumbersStation/NSText2SQL).

Evaluation Data

We evaluate our models on three text-to-SQL benchmarks: Spider, Bird, and text2sql.

Training Procedure

SambaCoder-nsql-llama-2-70b was trained using cross-entropy loss to maximize the likelihood of sequential inputs. For finetuning on text-to-SQL pairs, we only compute the loss over the SQL portion of the pair. The model is trained using SambaNova's in-house Reconfigurable Dataflow Unit (RDU), leveraging data and model parallelism. We pre-trained for 2 epochs and fine-tuned for 10 epochs.
