Similar to the others Falcon suite models, Falcon-Mamba has been trained leveraging a multi-stage training strategy to increase the context-length from 2,048 to 8,192. Moreover, inspired by the concept of Curriculum Learning, we carefully selected data mixtures throughout the training stages, considering both data diversity and complexity. Note that at inference the context-length is not relevant as the Mamba architecture has no limit on long range dependency. At the last training stage, small portion of high-quality curated data was used to further enhance performance. Overall, the data sources included RefinedWeb-English, high quality technical data, code data and math data extracted from public sources. In particular, we used samples coming from Fineweb-edu during our last training stage. The data was tokenized with the Falcon-7B/11B tokenizer. Training Procedure Falcon-Mamba-7B was trained on 256 H100 80GB GPUs for the majority of the training, using a 3D parallelism strategy (TP=1, PP=1, DP=256) combined with ZeRO. Training Hyperparameters Hyperparameter Value Comment Precision bfloat16 Optimizer AdamW Max learning rate 6.4e-4 Following a WSD (warmup-stable-decay) learning rate schedule Weight decay 1e-1 Batch size 2048 The model was trained AdamW optimizer, WSD (warmup-stable-decay) learning rate schedule, and a batch size rampup from bmin=128b_{\mathrm{min}}=128bmin​=128 to bmax=2048b_{\mathrm{max}}=2048bmax​=2048 during first 50 GT of training. In the stable phase we used maximal learning rate ηmax=6.4×10−4\eta_{\mathrm{max}}=6.4 \times 10^{-4}ηmax​=6.4×10−4, and decayed it to the minimal value ηmin=ηmax256\eta_{\mathrm{min}}=\frac{\eta_{\mathrm{max}}}{256}ηmin​=256ηmax​​ with exponential schedule over 500 GT. Also, we applied BatchScaling during the rampup — rescaling learning rate η\etaη so that the Adam noise temperature Tnoise≡ηbT_{\mathrm{noise}}\equiv\frac{\eta}{\sqrt{b}}Tnoise​≡b ​η​ is kept constant. Speeds, Sizes, Times The model training took roughly two months. Evaluation Benchmarks We evaluate our model on all benchmarks of the new leaderboard's version using the lm-evaluation-harness package, and then normalize the evaluation results with HuggingFace score normalization. model name IFEval BBH MATH LvL5 GPQA MUSR MMLU-PRO Average Pure SSM models FalconMamba-7B 33.36 19.88 3.63 8.05 10.86 14.47 15.04 TRI-ML/mamba-7b-rw* 22.46 6.71 0.45 1.12 5.51 1.69 6.25 Hybrid SSM-attention models recurrentgemma-9b 30.76 14.80 4.83 4.70 6.60 17.88 13.20 Zyphra/Zamba-7B-v1* 24.06 21.12 3.32 3.03 7.74 16.02 12.55 Transformer models Falcon2-11B 32.61 21.94 2.34 2.80 7.53 15.44 13.78 Meta-Llama-3-8B 14.55 24.50 3.25 7.38 6.24 24.55 13.41 Meta-Llama-3.1-8B 12.70 25.29 4.61 6.15 8.98 24.95 13.78 Mistral-7B-v0.1 23.86 22.02 2.49 5.59 10.68 22.36 14.50 Mistral-Nemo-Base-2407 (12B) 16.83 29.37 4.98 5.82 6.52 27.46 15.08 gemma-7B 26.59 21.12 6.42 4.92 10.98 21.64 15.28 RWKV models RWKV-v6-Finch-7B* 27.65 9.04 1.11 2.81 2.25 5.85 8.12 RWKV-v6-Finch-14B* 29.81 12.89 1.13 5.01 3.16 11.3 10.55 Also, we evaluate our model on the benchmarks of the first leaderboard using lighteval. model name ARC HellaSwag MMLU Winogrande TruthfulQA GSM8K Average Pure SSM models FalconMamba-7B* 62.03 80.82 62.11 73.64 53.42 52.54 64.09 TRI-ML/mamba-7b-rw* 51.25 80.85 33.41 71.11 32.08 4.70 45.52 Hybrid SSM-attention models recurrentgemma-9b** 52.00 80.40 60.50 73.60 38.60 42.60 57.95 Zyphra/Zamba-7B-v1* 56.14 82.23 58.11 79.87 52.88 30.78 60.00 Transformer models Falcon2-11B 59.73 82.91 58.37 78.30 52.56 53.83 64.28 Meta-Llama-3-8B 60.24 82.23 66.70 78.45 42.93 45.19 62.62 Meta-Llama-3.1-8B 58.53 82.13 66.43 74.35 44.29 47.92 62.28 Mistral-7B-v0.1 59.98 83.31 64.16 78.37 42.15 37.83 60.97 Mistral-Nemo-Base-2407 (12B)* 57.94 82.82 64.43 73.72 49.14 55.27 63.89 gemma-7B 61.09 82.20 64.56 79.01 44.79 50.87 63.75 RWKV models RWKV-v6-Finch-7B* 43.86 75.19 41.69 68.27 42.19 19.64 48.47 RWKV-v6-Finch-14B* 47.44 78.86 52.33 71.27 45.45 38.06 55.57 Mostly, we took evaluation results from both leaderboards. For the models marked by star we evaluated the tasks internally, while for the models marked by two stars the results were taken from paper or model card. Throughput This model can achieve comparable throughput and performance compared to other transformer based models that use optimized kernels such as Flash Attention 2. Make sure to install the optimized Mamba kernels with the following commands: pip install "causal-conv1d>=1.4.0" mamba-ssm Refer to our FalconMamba blogpost for more details about performance evaluation.
