# 🇧🇩 BanglaSupport-LLM: Fine-Tuned Bangla Customer Support Model

**BanglaSupport-LLM** is a domain-adapted, fine-tuned Large Language Model optimized specifically for **Bangla E-Commerce Customer Support**. Fine-tuned from **Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct** using **Unsloth QLoRA**, this model eliminates cross-lingual Hindi-bleeding, offering natural, professional, and grammatically accurate customer support responses in native Bengali.

## 📌 Model Details

- **Developed by:** Mahmudur Rahman ([mrshibly](https://github.com/mrshibly)) & Ferdous Hasan ([FHJibon](https://github.com/FHJibon))
- **Model Type:** PEFT / LoRA Adapter for Causal Language Modeling
- **Language(s):** Bengali (`bn`), English (`en`)
- **License:** MIT
- **Finetuned from model:** `unsloth/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-bnb-4bit`

## Uses

### Direct Use
- E-commerce customer service automation in Bangla.
- Answering queries regarding order tracking, shipping, return policies, payment options, and refund eligibility.
- Multi-turn conversational support with system persona framing.

### Out-of-Scope Use
- Medical, legal, or high-risk financial advice.
- Generating non-Bengali support text where strict monolingual output is expected.

## How to Get Started with the Model

```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

BASE_MODEL = "unsloth/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-bnb-4bit"
ADAPTER_ID = "mrshibly/bangla-support-qwen3-8b"

print("Loading model and tokenizer...")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(BASE_MODEL)
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    BASE_MODEL,
    device_map="auto",
    trust_remote_code=True,
)

model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, ADAPTER_ID)
model.eval()

system_prompt = "তুমি একজন সহায়ক বাংলা ই-কমার্স গ্রাহক সেবা সহকারী।"
user_question = "আমার অর্ডারটি ৩ দিন ধরে পেন্ডিং আছে, ডেলিভারি কখন পাব?"

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": system_prompt},
    {"role": "user", "content": user_question},
]

prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=150, temperature=0.7)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs.input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)

print("Response:", response)
```

## Training Details

### Training Data
Trained on a curated dataset of **25,000 normalized Bangla instruction pairs** filtered from:
1. `md-nishat-008/Bangla-Instruct` (ACL 2025 benchmark dataset)
2. `CohereForAI/aya_dataset` (Bengali subset)

Dataset preprocessing included **NFC Unicode normalization**, MinHash LSH deduplication, and instruction-intent filtering.

### Training Procedure

- **Framework:** PyTorch 2.11.0 + Unsloth `FastLanguageModel` + `SFTTrainer`
- **Method:** QLoRA 4-bit (`NormalFloat4` quantization)
- **Precision:** `bfloat16`
- **LoRA Parameters:** $r = 16$, $\alpha = 32$, Dropout = `0.0`
- **Target Modules:** `q_proj`, `k_proj`, `v_proj`, `o_proj`, `gate_proj`, `up_proj`, `down_proj`
