Model Description

MindSlate is a fine-tuned version of Google's Gemma-3B model, optimized for personal knowledge management tasks including flashcard generation, reminder processing, content summarization, and task management. The model was trained using Unsloth's efficient fine-tuning techniques for 2x faster training.

• Architecture: Gemma-3B with LoRA adapters
• Model type: Causal Language Model
• Fine-tuning method: 4-bit QLoRA
• Languages: English
• License: Apache 2.0
• Developed by: Srinivas Nampalli
• Finetuned from: unsloth/gemma-3b-E2B-it-unsloth-bnb-4bit

How to Get Started

from unsloth import FastLanguageModel
import torch

# Load model with Unsloth optimizations
model, tokenizer = FastLanguageModel.from_pretrained(
    model_name="Srinivasmec26/MindSlate",
    max_seq_length=2048,
    dtype=torch.float16,
    load_in_4bit=True,
)

# Set chat template
tokenizer = FastLanguageModel.get_chat_template(
    tokenizer,
    chat_template="gemma",  # Use "chatml" or other templates if needed
)

# Create prompt
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Convert to flashcard: Neural networks are computational models..."},
]

# Generate response
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    return_tensors="pt",
).to("cuda")

outputs = model.generate(
    **inputs, 
    max_new_tokens=256,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.95,
)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
