Ethical Use: The model should be used responsibly, particularly in clinical settings where the stakes are high. It should complement, not replace, professional judgment and expertise.

How to use

import transformers import torch

model_id = "ContactDoctor/Bio-Medical-Llama-3-8B"

pipeline = transformers.pipeline( "text-generation", model=model_id, model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16}, device_map="auto", )

messages = [ {"role": "system", "content": "You are an expert trained on healthcare and biomedical domain!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I'm a 35-year-old male and for the past few months, I've been experiencing fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold, and dry, itchy skin. What is the diagnosis here?"}, ]

prompt = pipeline.tokenizer.apply_chat_template( messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True )

terminators = [ pipeline.tokenizer.eos_token_id, pipeline.tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>") ]

outputs = pipeline( prompt, max_new_tokens=256, eos_token_id=terminators, do_sample=True, temperature=0.6, top_p=0.9, ) print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][len(prompt):])
