Meet TOWER: An Open Multilingual Large Language Model for Translation-Related Tasks
In an era of increasing global interconnectedness, the demand for accurate and efficient translation across multiple languages is higher than ever. Earlier methods of translation, while effective, have struggled with scalability and versatility, prompting researchers to explore new solutions. Enter artificial intelligence, where large language models (LLMs) are redefining multilingual natural language processing (NLP) and offering hope for seamless global communication.
TOWER: Enhancing Multilingual Capabilities
The TOWER model, developed through a collaborative effort, aims to bridge the gap between linguistic diversity and task versatility in translation technology. By pretraining on a vast dataset encompassing 20 billion tokens across ten languages, TOWER BASE establishes a strong linguistic foundation. The model undergoes fine-tuning with TOWER INSTRUCT on a curated dataset called TOWER BLOCKS, enhancing its proficiency in translation-related tasks.
Compared to existing open-source alternatives, TOWER consistently delivers superior results across various benchmarks, challenging the assumption that proprietary models outperform their open-source counterparts. Its open-source nature fosters a collaborative environment for researchers and practitioners to contribute to its evolution.
