Thai researchers create Mangosteen dataset for LLMs using Dolma toolkit

A Thai research team has developed a new dataset called Mangosteen, comprising 47 billion tokens, specifically for training Thai large language models (LLMs). They utilized the Dolma data-curation toolkit, originally developed by the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, to filter existing web datasets. This process resulted in a more focused corpus that enhanced the performance of Thai LLMs, even with a reduced amount of data compared to broader datasets. AI

IMPACT This development could lead to more capable and specialized Thai language models, improving AI performance for the region.
