Usage

Basic Text Generation

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
from peft import PeftModel
import torch

# Load the model and tokenizer
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "google/gemma-2-4b-it",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto"
)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "retro56/gemma3-4b-bengali-multimodal-persona")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("retro56/gemma3-4b-bengali-multimodal-persona")

# Generate Bengali response
prompt = """<|im_start|>system
আপনি একটি সহায়ক বাংলা ভাষী এআই সহায়ক।<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
আপনার নাম কি?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
"""

inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=200, temperature=0.7)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)

LangChain Integration

from langchain.llms.base import LLM

class BengaliGemmaLLM(LLM):
    def __init__(self, model, tokenizer):
        super().__init__()
        self.model = model
        self.tokenizer = tokenizer
    
    def _call(self, prompt: str, stop=None, **kwargs):
        # Format prompt and generate response
        # Implementation details in the full notebook
        pass

# Use with LangChain agents
llm = BengaliGemmaLLM(model, tokenizer)

Multimodal Integration

The model comes with complete multimodal integration including:

• Voice Input: Speech recognition for Bengali and English
• Voice Output: Bengali text-to-speech synthesis
• Platform APIs: FastAPI server for web/mobile integration
• Communication: Twilio (phone), WhatsApp Business API

See the complete notebook for full implementation.

Performance

Bengali Language Tasks
