Falcon3 1B Instruct - Details

Last update on 2025-05-18

Falcon3 1B Instruct is a large language model developed by Technology Innovation Institute, a company, featuring 1b parameters. It operates under the Falcon 3 TII Falcon License (Falcon-3-TII) and is designed to enhance science, math, and code capabilities in decoder-only models up to 10 billion parameters.

Description of Falcon3 1B Instruct

Falcon3-1B-Base is a pretrained and instruct large language model (LLM) from the Falcon3 family, available in parameter sizes ranging from 1B to 10B. It is a pruned and optimized version of a larger 3B Falcon model, trained on 80 Gigatokens of diverse data including web content, code, STEM fields, and multilingual material. The model uses a transformer-based causal decoder-only architecture with 18 decoder blocks, Grouped Query Attention (GQA), and a 4K context length. It excels in reasoning, language understanding, instruction following, code generation, and mathematics tasks, making it a versatile tool for complex and specialized applications.

Parameters & Context Length of Falcon3 1B Instruct

1b 4k

Falcon3 1B Instruct has 1b parameters, placing it in the small models (up to 7B) category, which ensures fast and resource-efficient performance suitable for simple tasks. Its 4K context length falls under short contexts (up to 4K tokens), making it effective for short tasks but limiting its ability to handle long texts.
