Pretraining before instruction alignment

The training pipeline used 11.7 trillion tokens across pretraining and mid-training. The project releases much of the corpus, but excludes some material because of license restrictions. Use the supplied tokenizer; the format resembles Harmony, but its token IDs differ.LLM-jp-4 8B Base official model card

Choose the checkpoint for adaptation

Practical guidance. This is the smallest dense model in the generation. Compare answer quality and output length on the same Japanese tasks before choosing it for a local application.
