## Training session

We done 2 stage of training,

1. Finetune on [Malaysian SFT](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mesolitica/Malaysian-SFT) to make the model understand Malaysian context.
- Wandb at https://wandb.ai/huseinzol05/lora-embedding-256-llama3.2-1b-small-malaysian-reasoning
2. Continue finetune on [Malaysian Reasoning](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mesolitica/Malaysian-Reasoning) including small samples of [Malaysian SFT](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mesolitica/Malaysian-SFT) to make it become reasoning model.

## How we train

1. LoRA on `["q_proj", "k_proj", "v_proj", "o_proj", "gate_proj", "up_proj", "down_proj", "embed_tokens", "lm_head"]`.
2. 256 Rank with alpha 512, or alpha of 2.0
3. Multipacking with proper SDPA causal masking to prevent document contamination and also make sure proper position ids.
4. Forked CCE loss for LoRA `lm_head` to reduce memory consumption.
