About
StarCoder2-3B is a 3-billion parameter large language model developed by the BigCode project, focusing on code generation tasks. Its architecture features a transformer decoder with grouped-query and sliding window attention, trained using the Fill-in-the-Middle objective. The model supports a context window of 16,384 tokens, allowing it to handle large contexts for tasks like code completion and translation across 17 programming languages. However, it is not designed for direct instruction-following. Its efficiency is enhanced by a Grouped Query Attention mechanism and availability in quantized versions for lower memory usage, though users should note that the generated code may not be error-free 25.
StarCoder2 3B is an open-source model in the StarCoder 2 family. The structured metadata tracks a 8k-token context window. This page tracks provider routes through Fireworks AI, with the cheapest tracked route listed at $0.1 input and $0.1 output per 1M tokens.
