Llama-3.1-KokoroChat-High: Japanese Counseling Dialogue Model

This model is a specialized 8 billion parameter Japanese language model, fine-tuned by UEC-InabaLab on the Llama-3.1-Swallow-8B-Instruct-v0.3 base. Its primary distinction lies in its training on a curated subset of the KokoroChat dataset, which comprises over 6,000 psychological counseling dialogues. Specifically, this "High" variant was fine-tuned on 2,601 dialogues that received client feedback scores between 70 and 98, indicating high quality and effectiveness.

Key Capabilities

  • Empathetic Response Generation: Designed to produce empathetic and context-aware responses in Japanese counseling scenarios.
  • Mental Health Dialogue: Optimized for conversational tasks related to mental health, covering topics like depression, family issues, school, career, and relationships.
  • Role-Play Data: Benefits from training on data collected through text-based role-play by trained counselors, ensuring realistic and appropriate dialogue patterns.

Fine-Tuning Details

The model was fine-tuned using QLoRA with 4-bit NF4 quantization. The training involved 5 epochs with an adamw_8bit optimizer and a learning rate of 1e-3.

Good For

  • Developing AI assistants for mental health support in Japanese.
