# knc_arab_full |
|
|
|
Goldfish is a suite of monolingual language models trained for 350 languages. |
|
This model is the <b>Central Kanuri</b> (Arabic script) model trained on 221MB of data (all our data in the language), after accounting for an estimated byte premium of 2.50; content-matched text in Central Kanuri takes on average 2.50x as many UTF-8 bytes to encode as English. |
|
The Goldfish models are trained primarily for comparability across languages and for low-resource languages; Goldfish performance for high-resource languages is not designed to be comparable with modern large language models (LLMs). |
|
|
|
Note: knc_arab is an [individual language](https://iso639-3.sil.org/code_tables/639/data) code. It is not contained in any macrolanguage codes contained in Goldfish (for script arab). |

## Model details: |
|
|
|
To access all Goldfish model details programmatically, see https://github.com/tylerachang/goldfish/blob/main/model_details.json. |
|
All models are trained with a [CLS] (same as [BOS]) token prepended, and a [SEP] (same as [EOS]) token separating sequences. |
