The model architecture design, pretraining, and evaluation are documented in our preprint: A Family of Pretrained Transformer Language Models for Russian.

The model was pretrained with sequence length 1024 using transformers by the SberDevices team on 80B tokens around 3 epochs. After that, the model was finetuned with the context size of 2048.

Total training time took around one week on 32 GPUs.
