Welcome to the exciting world of the Malayalam LLaMA 7B instruct model! This guide will take you through the steps to successfully implement and leverage the capabilities of this revolutionary model designed for the Malayalam language.

Getting Started with the Malayalam LLaMA Model

The inaugural release of the Malayalam LLaMA model marks a significant advancement in large language models (LLMs) tailored specifically for the Malayalam language. With a parameter count of 7B and an extensive vocabulary of approximately 16,000 tokens, this model allows for immediate inference and further fine-tuning to suit your specific natural language processing (NLP) tasks.

Accessing the Model

To start using the Malayalam LLaMA model, you can access it through the following resources:

• Read the full research paper that provides in-depth insights into the model’s capabilities.
• Explore the GitHub repository to check for updates and future models.
• For a hands-on experience, access an easy-to-use, no-code demo via Google Colab: Google Colab Demo.

Understanding the Code: An Analogy

Consider crafting a letter. Before you start writing, you need to set up your writing desk, ensure your materials are in order, and establish a theme for your letter. The `malayalam-llama-instruct` model follows a similar process, where each line of code works together harmoniously to establish an effective conversation.

In our scenario:

• Loading the model is akin to setting up your writing desk — you need the proper tools ready.
• Using the tokenizer can be compared to choosing the right kind of paper, which ensures your words are structured correctly.
• The conversation flow, as set by the prompts, is like deciding the topic and tone of your letter, preparing what you want to convey.
• Finally, just as you would review your letter before sending it out, the output function processes all to present the best response.

Example Code Usage

To utilize the Malayalam LLaMA model, you can use the following Python example:

from transformers import LlamaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

model = LlamaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("abhinandmalayalam-llama-instruct-v0.1")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("abhinandmalayalam-llama-instruct-v0.1")
inf_pipeline = pipeline("conversational", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)

def format_instruction(system_prompt, question, return_dict=False):
    messages = [{"content": system_prompt, "role": "system"},
                {"content": question, "role": "user"}] if system_prompt else [{"content": question, "role": "user"}]
    
    if return_dict:
        return messages

prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
temperature = 0.6
repetition_penalty = 1.1
max_new_tokens = 256

SYSTEM_PROMPT = "You are an AI assistant who follows instructions extremely well."
INPUT = "Give 3 tips to lead a healthy life"
instruction = format_instruction(SYSTEM_PROMPT, INPUT, return_dict=True)

output = inf_pipeline(instruction, temperature=temperature, max_new_tokens=max_new_tokens, repetition_penalty=repetition_penalty)
print(output)

Troubleshooting Common Issues

While using the Malayalam LLaMA model, you may encounter some challenges. Here are some tips to help you navigate these hurdles:

• Model Not Loading: Ensure that your internet connection is stable and that you have the necessary libraries installed.
• Slow Performance: If you are running this on a local machine, verify that you have adequate hardware resources, specifically GPU support.
• Unexpected Outputs: Remember that the model has not been detoxified, so you should review its outputs for harmful or offensive content and exercise caution during use.
