Instructions to use prathamkode/particle-1.0 with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use prathamkode/particle-1.0 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="prathamkode/particle-1.0")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("prathamkode/particle-1.0")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("prathamkode/particle-1.0", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

particle-1.0

~100M-parameter Llama-style chat model trained from scratch (random init). Not a fine-tune of Llama, SmolLM, or any Hub base.

Weights are MIT. Training data still needs attribution (below).

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

repo = "prathamkode/particle-1.0"
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(repo)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(repo)

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "hello"}]
prompt = tok.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
ids = tok(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
out = model.generate(**ids, max_new_tokens=64, temperature=0.7)
print(tok.decode(out[0], skip_special_tokens=False))

Chat format:

<|user|>
hello
<|assistant|>

Model details


Architecture	Llama-style decoder (RoPE, SwiGLU, RMSNorm, tied embeddings)
Parameters	~100M (12 layers, 768 hidden, 12 heads)
Context	2048 tokens
Tokenizer	Custom 32k byte-level BPE (not Llama / GPT-2 vocab)
Init	Random `N(0, 0.02)` — trained from scratch
Precision	BF16 training; Hub weights `bfloat16`

Training

Tokenizer trained from scratch on a FineWeb-Edu sample (~2GB text).
Pretrain next-token prediction on HuggingFaceFW/fineweb_edu_100BT-shuffled, first ~2B tokens.
SFT on HuggingFaceTB/smol-smoltalk (first user/assistant turn + a few greeting seeds).

SFT used that dataset as text only. No teacher model weights were copied.

Intended use

Research / demo small chat model. Expect short replies, mistakes, and weak reasoning.

Limitations

Very small capacity
May hallucinate
English-centric FineWeb-Edu subset
No RLHF / preference tuning
