| # Multi-Label Prompt Classifier |
|
|
| A fast, lightweight multi-label machine learning model designed for prompt complexity estimation, task intent classification, output token length forecasting, and dynamic LLM routing. The model executes inference in **< 10ms on CPU** with **zero GPU dependencies**. |
|
|
| ## Model Summary |
|
|
| - **Architecture**: Scikit-Learn `OneVsRestClassifier` ensemble of 23 binary `CatBoostClassifier` estimators |
| - **Feature Pipeline**: 5,000 TF-IDF features (unigram + bigram) combined with 19 handcrafted structural/semantic text features |
| - **Number of Target Classes**: 23 multi-label categories across 4 semantic dimensions |
| - **Inference Latency**: < 10ms per prompt on standard CPU |
| - **Memory Footprint**: ~13 MB model weights |
| - **Primary Use Case**: Classifying raw user prompts to route them to the most cost-effective LLM tier and enforce pre-inference token budgets without calling an auxiliary LLM. |

|
| ## Quick Start & Inference |
|
|
| ### Installation |
|
|
| ```bash |
| pip install catboost scikit-learn numpy pandas joblib scipy |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Loading and Predicting |
|
|
| ```python |
| import joblib |
| import numpy as np |
| import pandas as pd |
| |
| # 1. Load serialized artifacts |
| feature_extractor = joblib.load("feature_extractor.pkl") |
| classifier = joblib.load("prompt_router.pkl") |
| mlb = joblib.load("label_binarizer.pkl") |
| thresholds = np.load("thresholds.npy") |
| |
| def predict_prompt_labels(prompt: str, return_scores: bool = False): |
| # Transform input text into combined TF-IDF + structural feature matrix |
| X = feature_extractor.transform(pd.Series([prompt])) |
| |
| # Predict probabilities for each binary classifier in the ensemble |
| probs = np.array(classifier.predict_proba(X)) |
| scores = np.array([p[0][1] if np.ndim(p) == 2 else p[1] for p in probs]) |
| |
| # Apply calibrated decision thresholds |
| predictions = (scores >= thresholds).astype(int) |
| |
| # Fallback to top-scoring class if no threshold is met |
| if predictions.sum() == 0: |
| predictions[np.argmax(scores)] = 1 |
| |
| labels = list(mlb.inverse_transform(predictions.reshape(1, -1))[0]) |
| |
| if return_scores: |
| score_dict = {label: round(float(score), 4) for label, score in zip(mlb.classes_, scores)} |
| return labels, score_dict |
| |
| return labels |
| |
| # Example usage |
| query = "Design a distributed real-time fraud detection pipeline with Apache Flink and Kafka." |
| labels, scores = predict_prompt_labels(query, return_scores=True) |
| print("Predicted labels:", labels) |
| # Output: ['architecture-heavy', 'hard', 'infrastructure', 'interactive', 'long-output', 'premium', 'realtime', 'reasoning-intensive'] |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Intended Use & Integration |
|
|
| - **LLM Routing Middleware**: Classify incoming prompts to route between small/nano (e.g. 8B–9B), medium (e.g. 30B–70B), and large/frontier (e.g. 120B–405B) models. |
| - **Pre-Inference Token Budgeting**: Forecast expected output token lengths (`short-output`, `medium-output`, `long-output`) before generation to prevent token overspend. |
| - **Domain Specialization**: Direct code queries to coding models, debugging queries to specialized debug agents, and theoretical research questions to reasoning models. |
|
|
| ## Limitations |
|
|
| - **Domain Scope**: The training dataset focuses on technical engineering prompts (software engineering, cloud infrastructure, mathematics, algorithms). Predictions on general casual conversation or creative fiction may be less accurate. |
| - **Language**: English prompts only (`language: en`). |
