### Training Dataset:

SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct was trained with mix of German data augmentation and translated data. 
Aligned through **DPO** with our **new German SauerkrautLM-DPO dataset** based on parts of the SFT SauerkrautLM dataset 
as chosen answers and [Sauerkraut-7b-HerO](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO) as rejected answers. Added with additional **translated Parts of the [HuggingFaceH4/ultrafeedback_binarized](https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceH4/ultrafeedback_binarized)** and **[argilla/distilabel-math-preference-dpo](https://huggingface.co/datasets/argilla/distilabel-math-preference-dpo).**  
We found, that only a simple translation of training data can lead to unnatural German phrasings. 
Data augmentation techniques were used to grant grammatical, syntactical correctness and a more natural German wording in our training data.
