# Leia-Swallow-7B
LEIA is a training technique for autoregressive LLMs that effectively improves their performance in languages other than English by enhancing cross-lingual knowledge transfer from English to a target language.
This model is constructed by applying LEIA to Swallow, a Japanese-English bilingual LLM based on LLaMA 2.
The model achieves enhanced performance on six Japanese question-answering benchmarks, as reported below.
Please refer to our paper or blog post (in Japanese) for further technical details.

## Empirical Results
The model is assessed using the following six question answering benchmarks:
- X-CODAH
- X-CSQA
- JCommonsenseQA
- NIILC
- JEMHopQA
- JAQKET v2
| Model | X-CODAH | X-CSQA | JCommonsenseQA | NIILC | JEMHopQA | JAQKET v2 |
| ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
| Swallow | 42.0 | 41.0 | 80.3 | 59.5 | 50.8 | 86.2 |
| LEIA | **42.7** | **42.4** | **80.6** | **60.3** | **54.7** | **86.5** |
