# Llama-3.2-3B-Tele Model Card

## Model Summary

The language model Llama-3.2-3B-Tele is a Transformer with **3 billion** parameters, specialized in telecommunications. It is based on Meta [Llama-3.2-3B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B) and was continutally pretrained on [Tele-Data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/AliMaatouk/Tele-Data), a large-scale dataset of approximately 2.5 billion tokens of telecommunications material, including articles, standards, and general web content related to the telecommunications domain.

When assessed against telecommunications benchmarks such as [Tele-Eval](https://huggingface.co/datasets/AliMaatouk/Tele-Eval), Llama-3.2-3B-Tele outperforms [Llama-3.2-3B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B) by several percentage points. Additionally, Llama-3.2-3B-Tele matches [Llama-3.2-3B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B) across benchmarks related to common sense, language understanding, and logical reasoning. Thus, this adaptation was achieved with minimal compromise in performance on the original version.


### Context Length

The model was trained on a context length of 8192 tokens.

## Usage

Llama-3.2-3B-Tele is a base model best suited for fine-tuning on applications related to telecommunications. It has not been fine-tuned to follow instructions and operates solely within a text completion framework. An example of this completion can be found below:

```markdown
Prompt: Shannon capacity is

Model: the maximum rate at which information can be transmitted over a communication channel. It is named after Claude Shannon, who introduced the concept in his 1948 paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication". Shannon's work was a major breakthrough in the field of information theory, and his capacity formula is one of the most important results in the field.

## Sample Code

Below we share some code snippets on how to get quickly started with running the model. First, make sure to `pip install transformers`, then copy the snippet corresponding to your hardware and adapt it to your usecase.

#### Running the model on a CPU


```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("AliMaatouk/Llama-3.2-3B-Tele", torch_dtype="auto")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AliMaatouk/Llama-3.2-3B-Tele")

prompt = "Shannon capacity is"
input_ids = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=100)

generated_tokens = outputs[0, len(input_ids['input_ids'][0]):]
response = tokenizer.decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
```

#### Running the model on a single / multi GPU

```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("AliMaatouk/Llama-3.2-3B-Tele", torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AliMaatouk/Llama-3.2-3B-Tele")

prompt = "Shannon capacity is"
input_ids = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=100)

generated_tokens = outputs[0, len(input_ids['input_ids'][0]):]
response = tokenizer.decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
```
