🇧🇬 Bulgarian mGPT 1.3B

Language model for Bulgarian. Model has 1.3B parameters as you can guess from it's name.

Bulgarian belongs to Indo-European language family. It's a very phonetic language with approximately 7 million speakers. Here are some facts about it:

1. Bulgarian has a definite article which is postfixed to the noun.
2. It is the official language of Bulgaria.
3. It was the first Slavic language attested in writing.

Technical details

It's one of the models derived from the base mGPT-XL (1.3B) model (see the list below) which was originally trained on the 61 languages from 25 language families using Wikipedia and C4 corpus.

We've found additional data for 23 languages most of which are considered as minor and decided to further tune the base model. Bulgarian mGPT 1.3B was trained for another 200 steps with batch_size=4 and context window of 2048 tokens on 1 A100.

Final perplexity for this model on validation is 15.2.
