Persian Gemma 2b: Experimental Conversational AI

PersianML/gemma-2-2b-persian is an early-stage experimental model based on Google's Gemma-2-2b-it, fine-tuned using QLoRA for Persian language conversational tasks. With 2.6 billion parameters and an 8192-token context length, it aims to explore the feasibility of adapting Gemma for Persian.

Key Characteristics & Training:

  • Base Model: google/gemma-2-2b-it
  • Fine-tuning: QLoRA (Quantization-aware Low-Rank Adaptation) with a LoRA Rank of 32.
  • Dataset: mshojaei77/Persian_sft, a collection of Persian conversations for instruction fine-tuning.
  • Training Duration: Critically, the model was trained for only 20 steps, making it a proof-of-concept rather than a fully capable model.

Intended Use Cases:

  • Research & Experimentation: Investigating the potential of Gemma for Persian conversational AI.
  • Educational Purposes: Demonstrating QLoRA fine-tuning techniques and Persian language model development.
  • Community Development: Encouraging contributions to Persian language models.
  • Prototyping (with caution): Exploring potential applications, acknowledging severe limitations.

Limitations:

Due to its extremely limited training (20 steps) and lack of validation, the model exhibits significant limitations:

  • Severe Under-training: Leads to sub-optimal performance, limited fluency, and coherence.
  • Hallucinations & Factual Errors: Prone to generating incorrect or nonsensical information.
  • Bias: Likely inherits and amplifies biases from its base model and dataset.
  • Poor Generalization: Performance degrades significantly on out-of-distribution data.
  • No Formal Evaluation: No benchmarks have been conducted due to its preliminary state.

This model serves as a starting point for further research and development in Persian conversational AI, requiring significant additional training for practical applications.
