Mistral

Released in September 2023, Mistral AI’s Mistral 7B is another classic transformer decoder framework Large Language Model with significant enhancements. The Mistral AI team implemented Grouped-Query Attention and Sliding Window Attention, which leverages Flash Attention 2. More information about the model and how it was trained are available in the companion paper “Mistral 7B”.
