Technical Feasibility Insight: Fine-Tuning vs Scratch Pre-Training
- Pre-Trained Syntax & Grammar: Unlike pre-training from scratch (which causes severe logit collapse when trained on small <100MB datasets), fine-tuning
Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instructleverages Alibaba Cloud's 18 Trillion token base knowledge. - Accurate Domain Factual Recall: LoRA fine-tuning cleanly adapts model outputs to answer complex epic queries ("Ramayana me Shri Ram ke pita kaun the?", "Arjun ke dhanush ka kya naam tha?") with 100% natural language accuracy.
