About StarCoder2 15B

StarCoder2-15B is a sophisticated large language model, expertly crafted for code generation and understanding. Developed by the BigCode project, it features 15 billion parameters and is trained on The Stack v2, a vast dataset of over 4 trillion tokens from more than 600 programming languages. Its advanced transformer decoder architecture, equipped with a grouped-query and sliding window attention mechanism and a Fill-in-the-Middle training objective, allows a context window of 16,384 tokens. In addition to generating and completing code, the model excels in tasks like code summarization and retrieving relevant snippets through natural language queries.
