Abstract
We extend the context length of Llama-3-8B-Instruct from 8K to 80K via QLoRA fine-tuning. The entire training cycle is super efficient, which takes 8 hours on one 8xA800 (80G) GPU machine. The resulted model exhibits superior performances across a broad range of evaluation tasks, such as NIHS, topic retrieval, and long-context language understanding; meanwhile, it also well preserves the original capability over short contexts. The dramatic context extension is mainly attributed to merely 3.5K synthetic training samples generated by GPT-4 , which indicates the LLMs' inherent (yet largely underestimated) potential to extend its original context length. In fact, the context length could be extended far beyond 80K with more computation resources. Therefore, the team will publicly release the entire resources (including data, model, data generation pipeline, training code) so as to facilitate the future research from the community: \url{this https URL}.

我们通过 QLoRA 微调将Llama-3-8B-Instruct的上下文长度从8K扩展到80K。整个训练周期非常高效,只需在单个8xA800(80G)GPU机器上花费8小时。所得到的模型在广泛的评估任务中都表现出卓越的性能,例如NIHS、主题检索和长文本理解;同时,它还能够在短上下文中很好地保留原始功能。戏剧性的上下文扩展主要归功于由GPT-4生成的3.5K个合成训练样本,这表明LLM固有的(然而却被低估)延展原始上下文长度的潜力。实际上,使用更多的计算资源,上下文长度可以大大扩展。因此,团队将公开发布整个资源(包括数据、模型、数据生成管道和训练代码),以便于未来社区的研究:\url{this
