Hindi Causal Language Model (convaiinnovations/hindi-foundational-model-base)

This repository contains a custom-trained Hindi Causal Language Model designed for Hindi text generation.

Model Description

  • Model Size: 113M (YAH !!! Its very small)

  • Architecture: Custom Transformer (12 layers, hidden=768, 16 heads, ffn=3072, act=swiglu, norm=rmsnorm) based on the HindiCausalLM class with Hindi-specific optimizations:

    • Multi-resolution attention to capture both character-level and word-level patterns
    • Morphology-aware feed-forward layers
    • Script-mix processing for Hindi-English code-mixing

  • Language: Hindi (hi)

  • Training Data: 2.7 million high-quality Hindi text samples from:

    • IITB Parallel Corpus (1.2M sentences)
    • Samanantar (750K samples)
    • Oscar Hindi (450K sentences)
    • CC-100 Hindi (300K sentences)
    • Hindi Wikipedia (150K articles)
    • Hindi news articles (100K pieces)
    • XNLI Hindi (50K premise-hypothesis pairs)
    • IndicGLUE (30K samples)
    • Hindi literature (5K passages)

  • Tokenizer: SentencePiece trained on Hindi text with vocab size of 16,000

  • Training Details: Trained on 4xL4 24GB VRAM GPUs for 8 hours. 2 epochs, hidden size=768, num_layers=12, block_size=512, batch_size=64, learning_rate=5e-5, swiglu activation, rope positional encoding, and rms normalization

How to Use

⚠️ Important: This model uses custom Python classes (HindiCausalLM, HindiCausalLMConfig, SentencePieceTokenizerWrapper) which are not part of the standard Hugging Face transformers library. The custom Python files are included in this repository.

Example Outputs

Basic Example 

prompt = "हिंदी भाषा"
# Output: "हिंदी भाषा भारत की सबसे महत्वपूर्ण भाषाओं में से एक है। यह भारत के उत्तर भारत के राज्यों में मुख्य भाषा के रूप में बोली जाती है..."

Creative Writing Example 

prompt = "एक बार की बात है"
# Output: "एक बार की बात है, जब मैं छोटा था, तब मेरे दादाजी मुझे एक कहानी सुनाया करते थे। वह कहानी एक ऐसे राजा की थी जो अपने राज्य में..."

Limitations and Biases

  • The model may reflect biases present in its training data, including potential cultural, gender, or regional biases found in source materials.
  • Performance is limited by its architecture size (12 layers, hidden=768) and training dataset size.
  • May generate repetitive, nonsensical, or factually incorrect text.
  • Uses weighted pooling with sensitivity to Hindi's SOV structure, but may struggle with complex semantic relationships in longer texts.
  • May have particular difficulties with:
    • Cultural concepts lacking direct English translations
    • Idiomatic expressions specific to Hindi
    • Formal/informal speech distinctions
    • Handling Hindi-specific morphological complexities
