Koto Small 7B (Pretrained)
Koto-Small-7B-PT is a version of MiMo-7B-Base trained on almost a billion tokens of creative writing data.
Please check out Aurore-Reveil/Koto-Small-7B-IT, it's the official RP and instruct tune!
Usage
This model is not intended for use outside of raw text completion settings, such as cowriting. Instruct will not work. Multi-turn roleplay will not work.
It was trained at 32k, but as not all samples were this long, we expect that in the best case you can get ~16k effective context.
We found that 1.25 temperature and 0.05 min_p worked best, but YMMV!
Datasets
Some of the data used to train this model includes:
- Most of The Anarchist Library, a repository for anarchist manifestos and writing (see allura-org/the-anarchist-library)
- A random sample of public domain books from Project Gutenberg
- Furry (anthro and feral) storytelling and smut
- A small subset of known high-quality books and story data

Training Notes
This model was trained over the course of ~18 hours on an A100 node. We used 8-bit AdamW and the Cosine LR scheduler, as well as both gradient clipping and weight decay for regularization.
Before training, we converted the original model to the Qwen 2 architecture by removing the MTP weights and custom modelling code, and slightly modifying the config.json. This allowed us to use CCE and Liger which let the train go much faster than it would have otherwise.
We decided to keep the final model in the converted Qwen 2 format, as it is more supported by community software such as EXL2, EXL3, Aphrodite, etc, as well as the original architecture's MTP weights likely being much less effective after finetuning without them.

Finetuning Notes
This model has had ChatML tokens already added by Xiaomi. Please use this format when finetuning to ensure compatibility with the rest of the ecosystem.
