Overview
Llama-JP-0.5B-init is a Japanese initialization of the Llama architecture with approximately 0.5B non-embedding parameters. The checkpoint serves as a clean starting point for downstream pre-training or instruction tuning rather than a production-ready model.

Usage
Requirements
transformers>=4.51.0
accelerate>=1.6.0
sentencepiece>=0.2.0
flash-attn>=2.7.3
Sample Code
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
model_name = "iamtatsuki05/Llama-JP-0.5B-init"
model_kwargs = {
"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16,
"attn_implementation": "flash_attention_2",
"device_map": "auto",
}
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, **model_kwargs)
prompt = "ちいかわのハチワレは"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
output = model.generate(
**inputs,
max_new_tokens=256,
temperature=0.8,
top_p=0.9,
do_sample=True,
)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
