Installation & Usage

This model is available on Hugging Face and can be used in multiple ways:

Method 1: Using Unsloth for Optimized Inference

from unsloth import FastLanguageModel

model, tokenizer = FastLanguageModel.from_pretrained(
    model_name = "muhammadnoman76/Lughaat-1.0-8B-Instruct", 
    max_seq_length = max_seq_length,
    dtype = dtype,
    load_in_4bit = load_in_4bit,
)

FastLanguageModel.for_inference(model)

# Define the prompt template for Urdu instructions
lughaat_prompt = """نیچے ایک ہدایت ہے جو کسی کام کی تفصیل بیان کرتی ہے، جس کے ساتھ ایک ان پٹ دیا گیا ہے جو مزید سندات فراہم کرتا ہے۔ تھوڑا وقت لیکر ایک جواب لکھیں جو درست طریقے سے درخواست مکمل کریں
### Instruction:
{}
### Input:
{}
### Response:
{}"""

# Example usage
inputs = tokenizer(
[
    lughaat_prompt.format(
        "قائد اعظم کون ہے؟", 
        "", 
        "", 
    )
], return_tensors = "pt").to("cuda")

# Generate response with streaming
from transformers import TextStreamer
text_streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, streamer = text_streamer, max_new_tokens = 128)

Method 2: Using Hugging Face Pipeline

from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="muhammadnoman76/Lughaat-1.0-8B-Instruct")
result = pipe("نیچے ایک ہدایت ہے جو کسی کام کی تفصیل بیان کرتی ہے، جس کے ساتھ ایک ان پٹ دیا گیا ہے جو مزید سندات فراہم کرتا ہے۔ تھوڑا وقت لیکر ایک جواب لکھیں جو درست طریقے سے درخواست مکمل کریں\n### Instruction: قائد اعظم کون ہے؟\n### Input:\n### Response:")

Method 3: Direct Loading with Transformers

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("muhammadnoman76/Lughaat-1.0-8B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("muhammadnoman76/Lughaat-1.0-8B-Instruct")

# Process input
prompt = """نیچے ایک ہدایت ہے جو کسی کام کی تفصیل بیان کرتی ہے، جس کے ساتھ ایک ان پٹ دیا گیا ہے جو مزید سندات فراہم کرتا ہے۔ تھوڑا وقت لیکر ایک جواب لکھیں جو درست طریقے سے درخواست مکمل کریں
### Instruction:
قائد اعظم کون ہے؟
### Input:

### Response:
"""

inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=128)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)

Prompt Format

For optimal results, use the following prompt format:

نیچے ایک ہدایت ہے جو کسی کام کی تفصیل بیان کرتی ہے، جس کے ساتھ ایک ان پٹ دیا گیا ہے جو مزید سندات فراہم کرتا ہے۔ تھوڑا وقت لیکر ایک جواب لکھیں جو درست طریقے سے درخواست مکمل کریں
### Instruction:
[Your instruction in Urdu]
### Input:
[Additional context or input - can be empty]
### Response:
