In a world increasingly reliant on artificial intelligence, our ability to communicate with machines in diverse languages has never been more critical. The Telugu LLM Labs has developed a new model that provides a specialized foundation for answering questions in Telugu. In this article, we’ll explore how to utilize this model effectively and troubleshoot common issues you may encounter.

Understanding the Model

This model, a fine-tuned version of HuggingFace’s zephyr-7b-gemma, focuses specifically on Telugu QA datasets. Think of it as a specialized librarian—familiar with a diverse range of books (datasets) but primarily tasked with answering questions in Telugu. While this model isn’t fully aligned via DPO (Dynamic Programming Optimization), it’s still potent in providing thoughtful responses based on its training.

How to Input Questions

The querying process involves formatting your questions correctly. Here’s how you can do it:

• Prepare your question in Telugu or English.
• Encode your question using the tokenizer provided with the model.
• Generate responses by running inference through the model.

Example Walkthrough

Let’s examine a couple of examples to see how this process works in practice.

Example 1:

Input: "ఆరోగ్యంగా ఉండటానికి నాకు మూడు చిట్కాలు ఇవ్వండి"
Output: 
1. సమతుల్య ఆహారం తినండి
2. క్రమం తప్పకుండా వ్యాయామం చేయండి
3. మైండ్ఫుల్నెస్ సాధన చేయండి

In this scenario, the input queries for health tips, and the model generates three appropriate suggestions in Telugu.

Example 2:

Input: "Give me three tips to stay healthy"
Output: 
1. సమతుల్య ఆహారం తీసుకోండి
2. క్రమం తప్పకుండా వ్యాయామం చేయండి
3. తగినంత నిద్ర పొందండి

Here, the question is presented in English, showcasing the model’s bilingual capabilities.

Model Execution

To execute the model for inference, follow this blueprint:

chat = [ {'role': 'user', 'content': query}]
encoded_input = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors=pt)
model_inputs = encoded_input.to(device)
generated_ids = model.generate(model_inputs, max_new_tokens=1000, do_sample=False, eos_token_id=107)
decoded_text = tokenizer.decode(generated_ids[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(decoded_text)

This process is akin to a relay race where your question gets passed along various components—the tokenizer, the model, and finally, the decoder—to produce a thorough response.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you encounter issues while using the model, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Ensure your input data is correctly formatted. Misformatted input can lead to erroneous output.
• Check the compatibility of your environment. Ensure that all dependencies are properly installed and up to date.
• Monitor system resources. A lack of available memory or processing power can impede the model’s performance.
• If the output is not as expected, try varying the question or its format—phrasing can significantly influence AI responses.
