kl3m-001-32k tokenizer

The kl3m-001-32k tokenizer is a domain-specific tokenizer trained on ~500B tokens of financial and legal text from primarily-English sources.

This tokenizer was used for the first generation of KL3M embedding and generative models, including kl3m-170M, kl3m-1.7B, kl3m-embedding-001, and kl3m-embedding-002.

Please see kl3m-003-64k for the next iteration of our research on domain-specific tokenization.

Model Description

The kl3m-001-32k tokenizer is a domain-specific tokenizer trained on ~500B tokens of financial and legal text from primarily-English sources.

This tokenizer is notable for a number of reasons:

Domain Specific

As part of our research on more efficient SLM training for the legal and financial domain, we trained a domain-specific tokenizer on a large corpus of financial and legal text. This tokenizer has not, for example, seen any common general pretrain sources like Wikipedia or Common Crawl.

Large Added Token Set

As part of our research on efficient and reliable extraction and generation, we inserted a large numer of deterministic "whole" tokens into the tokenizer, such as HTML tags like <span, common Markdown elements like # and ##, and legal enumerations like (a).

See the get_custom_tokens method in kl3m_embeddings/training/kl3m_001/train_tokenizer.py for more details:

def get_custom_tokens(
    include_whitespace: bool = True,
    include_markdown: bool = True,
    include_html: bool = True,
    include_json: bool = True,
    include_xml: bool = True,
    include_years: bool = True,
    include_citations: bool = True,
    lowercase: bool = False,
) -> list[str]:

Space Preservation

Unlike many tokenizers, we retain the space character as a token after early small-scale experiments. While this has substantial space implications for some types of text with many shorter words, we found that it reduced the rate of a number of undesirable phenomena.

Special Tokens for both Embedding and Generative Models

For both training and inference efficiency, we intended this tokenizer vocabulary to be usable for both embedding and generative models. As such, we included special tokens suitable for both causal and masked language modeling tasks.

  • <|start|>: 0
  • <|end|>: 1
  • <|pad|>: 2
  • <|unk|>: 3
  • <|sep|>: 4
  • <|cls|>: 5
  • <|mask|>: 6

Replication

The entire data collection and preprocesing pipeline is being made available, along with training data, as part of the ALEA Institute KL3M project.

The source code to used to train the tokenizer is available on GitHub at: https://github.com/alea-institute/kl3m-embedding-research

The data pipeline will be available on GitHub and S3 in the near future.

Uses

This tokenizer is intended to be used for English language text in professional contexts such as legal and financial documents.

Recommendations

Please see the kl3m-003-64k tokenizer for the next iteration of our research on domain-specific tokenization.

In general, the kl3m-003-64k tokenizer is recommended over the original kl3m-001-32k tokenizer.
