Kanarya-750M: Turkish Language Model
Kanarya is a pre-trained Turkish GPT-J 750M model. Released as part of Turkish Data Depository efforts, the Kanarya family has two versions (Kanarya-2B, Kanarya-0.7B). Kanarya-2B is the larger version and Kanarya-0.7B is the smaller version. Both models are trained on a large-scale Turkish text corpus, filtered from OSCAR and mC4 datasets. The training data is collected from various sources, including news, articles, and websites, to create a diverse and high-quality dataset. The models are trained using a JAX/Flax implementation of the GPT-J architecture. The models are only pre-trained and are intended to be fine-tuned on a wide range of Turkish NLP tasks.
