latam-gpt/red_pajama_es_hq

RedPajama's High Quality Spanish subset

What is this?

The following is a high-quality dataset distilled from the Spanish subsection of RedPajama-Data-v2, created using the methodology proposed in FineWEB-Edu.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("latam-gpt/red_pajama_es_hq") 

Filtering by quality score

Documents in this corpus are scored on academic quality from 2.5 to 5, with higher scores indicating better quality. The dataset can be filtered by score using standard filtering methods.

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("latam-gpt/red_pajama_es_hq")

# filter the dataset for scores > 3
filtered_ds = ds.filter(lambda x: x['score'] > 3)

Dataset creation

In a nutshell, we use Llama-3.1-70B to grade the educational quality of 550k samples from the original dataset. Then, we used these samples to train a encoder-based classifier, so that it learns to assign a score from 0 to 5. Since this model is cheaper to use than a GPT, we can run it at scale over the entire dataset, thus allowing us to filter a high-quality section from it.

Here is an overview of the architecture:

What is Latam-GPT?

Latam-GPT is a Latin American initiative to develop a large language model built entirely in the region. The project encompasses all development stages — from data collection and pre-training to final model refinement — making it the first foundation model created completely within Latin America.
