Deriving Scaling Laws for OpenEuroLLM Models: Learning Rate, Batch Size and Loss
We study the scaling behavior of learning rate and batch size in pretraining dense large language models on English-prevalent corpora. Beyond scaling \textit{jointly optimal} learning rates and batch sizes, we investigate their \textit{marginal} evolution with model capacity and data scale and develop a model that captures these relationships. As we employ a Warmup-Stable-Decay learning rate schedule, we further investigate the gains from learning rate annealing over a broad range of hyperparameters settings, models and data budgets, and whether the optimal learning rate and batch size \textit
