CPath: Canadian Academic Pathfinder

CPath is a specialized language model developed by houcine-bdk, built upon the TinyLlama-1.1B base model. It has been extensively fine-tuned on a curated dataset of 23,970 question-answer pairs, focusing specifically on Canadian university program information. This model's primary strength lies in its ability to provide accurate and detailed guidance regarding academic programs, admission requirements, course structures, and university selection within Canadian institutions.

Intended Uses

• Educational Institutions: Useful for providing program information.

Limitations

• Coverage is currently limited to McGill University and the University of British Columbia.
• Information cutoff date is 2024, so newer updates may not be reflected.
