MicroStoryBananaMind-V1

So have you seen a model that is only 100KB and is still able to somehow generate english? Well this is it!

MicroStoryBananaMind-V1 is a tiny character-level story model trained on TinyStories-style text.

It uses a GRU:

• its only 500K parameters
• character-level vocabulary
• packed ternary weights
• Supports CPU NumPy inference through trust_remote_code

The model uses a Ternary format in the BitNet-like style to be extremely compact

Usage

Install dependencies:

pip install transformers numpy huggingface_hub

Load from Hugging Face:

from transformers import AutoModel

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "BananaMind/MicroStoryBananaMind-V1",
    trust_remote_code=True,
)

text = model.generate_text(
    prompt="Once upon a time, there was a cat",
    max_new_tokens=500,
    temperature=0.65,
    top_k=25,
    repetition_penalty=1.08,
    seed=42,
)

print(text)

Local usage:

from transformers import AutoModel

model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    "./MicroStoryBananaMind-V1",
    trust_remote_code=True,
)

print(model.generate_text(
    prompt="Once upon a time",
    max_new_tokens=300,
    temperature=0.65,
    top_k=25,
))

Model details

This is a compact experimental model

The model is character-level, so it generates one character at a time.

Once upon a time there was a shiny little girl named Misinn.

"What is that?" she says.

Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy, Timmy was playing with his favorite toy that it was many funny. The mom said so snowed that she stopped that showes be smiles. He said, "Ghank!"

Lily smiled and said, "This disalshable slishad was scared.

Herself that day! I should share her eyes and stay some trass to see what shrong that is surprise!"

To compare, the banner image of this model card is 1.2MB, and the model is 100KB thats 12x smaller than a single image.

Though the Activations, hidden state, gate math, scales, biases, and accumulators are FP32.
