## Model description

**FlorRAG** is a 6.3B-parameter transformer-based causal language model for Catalan, Spanish, and English, trained on a customized QA dataset from various sources especifically to be used in RAG (Retrieval-Aumented Generation) Applications. 
The dataset used to fine tune the model is: [projecte-aina/RAG_Multilingual](https://huggingface.co/datasets/projecte-aina/RAG_Multilingual)
## Intended uses and limitations

The **FlorRAG** model is ready-to-use for RAG applications optimized for Catalan, English and Spanish languages. 
It can perform text-generation in the context of RAG applications.

## How to use
```python
import torch
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="projecte-aina/FlorRAG")

instruction = "Quants habitants té Mataró?"

context = "Mataró és una ciutat de Catalunya, capital de la comarca del Maresme. Situada al litoral mediterrani, a uns 30 km al nord-est de Barcelona, ha estat tradicionalment un centre administratiu de rellevància territorial i un pol de dinamisme econòmic. Compta amb prop de 130.000 habitants, essent actualment la vuitena població del Principat i la tretzena dels Països Catalans. "

# We need to format the prompt and context using ### and \n

def givePrediction(instruction, context, max_new_tokens=50, repetition_penalty=1.2, top_k=50, top_p=0.95, do_sample=True, temperature=0.5):
    text = f"### Instruction\n{{instruction}}\n### Context\n{{context}}\n### Answer\n"
    response = pipe(text.format(instruction=instruction, context=context),temperature=temperature,repetition_penalty=repetition_penalty, max_new_tokens=max_new_tokens,top_k=top_k, top_p=top_p, do_sample=do_sample)[0]["generated_text"]
    answer = response.split("###")[-1][8:-1]
    return answer

answer = givePrediction(instruction, context)

print(answer)
'Mataró té una població de 130.000 habitants. Aquesta ciutat catalana, situada al litoral mediterrani, a uns 30 km al nord-est de Barcelona, ha estat històricament un important centre administratiu i un important pol de dinamisme econòmic.'

```

## Limitations and bias
At the time of submission, no measures have been taken to estimate the bias and toxicity embedded in the model. 
However, we are well aware that our models may be biased since the corpora have been collected using crawling techniques 
on multiple web sources. We intend to conduct research in these areas in the future, and if completed, this model card will be updated. 


## Training


### Instruction Data

The training corpus is composed of  56.406 RAG instruction following examples, created from extractive QA instances that were used as 'kernels of truth' to prompt a Mixture of expert model to generate more human-like and complete answers, based on a context. See Data Card at [projecte-aina/RAG_Multilingual](https://huggingface.co/datasets/projecte-aina/RAG_Multilingual).
