+ # YORI-LLaMA-Quantized
12
+
13
+ **YORI-LLaMA-Quantized** is a **Yoruba large language model** specialized in **text generation** and **AI-based assistance** in Yoruba.
14
+ It was **quantized** from its base model , [`Jacaranda/yorubaLLaMA`](https://huggingface.co/Jacaranda/yorubaLLaMA), to achieve lighter memory usage and faster inference while maintaining strong linguistic performance.
15
+
16
+ ---
17
+ ## 💬 Description
18
+ YORI-LLaMA-Quantized is trained to **generate and understand natural Yoruba text** with contextual fluency and syntactic awareness.
19
+ It can be used for:
20
+
21
+ - Yoruba **AI assistants**
22
+ - **fine-tuned for Chatbot**
23
+ - **Text completion**, storytelling, and creative generation
24
+ - **Language preservation** and computational linguistics research

27
+
28
+ ## ⚠️ Limitations
29
+
30
+ - **Code-switching weakness:** The model struggles when Yoruba and English are mixed, leading to misinterpretations or incorrect tokens.
31
+ - **Numerical inaccuracies:** Occasionally produces factual errors, e.g., reporting *mẹ́ẹ̀dógún (15)* instead of *mẹ́rìndínlógójì (36)* for the number of Nigerian states.
32
+ - **Ambiguous prompts:** May output irrelevant or nonsensical responses when the query lacks clarity.
33
+
34
+ These limitations suggest the need for **more diverse and updated training data** across dialects and domains.

38
+ ## ⚙️ Inference Notice
39
+ A key consideration when running inference is **model precision**.
40
+ YORI was quantized for efficiency, but inference should be performed in **FP16 precision** for stability and performance.
