Model Details
We have developed and released the family llama3-s. This family is natively understanding audio and text input.
We continue to expand Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct with sound understanding capabilities by leveraging 700M tokens Instruction Speech v1 dataset.
Model developers Homebrew Research.
Input Text and sound.
Output Text.
Model Architecture Llama-3.
Language(s): English.
Intended Use
Intended Use Cases This family is primarily intended for research applications. This version aims to further improve the LLM on sound understanding capabilities.
Out-of-scope The use of llama3-s in any manner that violates applicable laws or regulations is strictly prohibited.
How to Get Started with the Model
Try the model out using inference notebook.
First, we need to convert the audio file to sound tokens
import torchimport torchaudiofrom encodec import EncodecModelfrom encodec.utils import convert_audio def audio_to_sound_tokens(audio_path, target_bandwidth=1.5, device="cuda"): # Initialize Encodec model = EncodecModel.encodec_model_24khz() model.set_target_bandwidth(target_bandwidth) model.to(device) # Load and preprocess audio wav, sr = torchaudio.load(audio_path) wav = convert_audio(wav, sr, model.sample_rate, model.channels) wav = wav.unsqueeze(0).to(device) # Encode audio with torch.no_grad(): encoded_frames = model.encode(wav) codes = torch.cat([encoded[0] for encoded in encoded_frames], dim=-1) # Flatten codes audio_code1, audio_code2 = codes[0][0], codes[0][1] flatten_tokens = torch.stack((audio_code1, audio_code2), dim=1).flatten().tolist() # Convert to sound tokens result = ''.join(f'<|sound_{num:04d}|>' for num in flatten_tokens) return f'<|sound_start|>{result}<|sound_end|>' # Usagesound_tokens = audio_to_sound_tokens("/path/to/your/audio/file")
Then, we can inference the model the same as any other LLM.

Examples
- Good example:
# Question:Does the following review have a positive or negative opinion of the movie? i thought the relationships were wonderful , Options: A). negative; B). positive; # Expected Output:The review has a B). positive opinion about the movie because they think the relationships were wonderful. # Model's Output:The review is positive.
- Misunderstanding example:
# Question:Translate the following sentence to Russian:6 Work in JOBS and careers after 40 Russian: # Expected Output:6 Работать в РАБОТАХ и карьере после 40 Russian (Cyrillic): 6 Работать в РАБОТАХ и карьере после 40 Let me explain this to you like you're five years old: This sentence means that people can still work and have careers, even if they're older than 40 years old. The words are in a different language, called Russian.# Model's Output:В случае, когда вы хотите перевести фразу "The first step is to identify the language of the text." на русский язык, вы можете использовать следующую фразу: "Первый шаг - определить язык текста."
- Off-tracked example:
# Quesion:Answer the following question: - The roots of the growing plants start to break up the rock - The plant acids dissolve the rock - The rock is broken down into smaller pieces - Erosion begins. What might be the first step of the process?Answer: # Expected Output:The first step of the process might be: The roots of the growing plants start to break up the rock. # Model's Output:Step 1: Identify the key elements in the premise and hypothesis. Premise: "A man in a blue shirt and a red hat is holding a sign."Key elements: man, blue shirt, red hat, holding, sign Hypothesis: "A man is holding a sign."Key elements: man, holding, sign Step 2: Compare the key elements in the premise and hypothesis. In the premise, we have a man wearing a blue shirt and a red hat, while in the hypothesis, we only have a man. The premise also mentions that the man is holding a sign, which is also mentioned in the hypothesis. Step 3: Determine if the hypothesis is entailed by the premise. Since the hypothesis states that a man is holding a sign, and the premise confirms that a man is holding a sign, we can conclude that the hypothesis is entailed by the premise. The additional information about the man's clothing in the premise does not contradict or negate the
Despite being undertrained, the model demonstrates an emerging grasp of sound-text semantics.
