LoRA adapter for Mistral-7B-Instruct fine-tuned on the Friends TV show corpus for proactive response prediction in multi-party conversations. Given a conversational context and a current utterance, the model predicts whether a target speaker will SPEAK next or remain SILENT.

Model Details

Model type: LoRA adapter for causal language model (text classification / sequence classification)
Language(s): English
License: Apache 2.0
Finetuned from: mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2
Friends Corpus: TV show transcripts from the sitcom Friends Friends Corpus

Model Sources

Base model: mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2

How to Get Started with the Model

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "kraken07/mistral-7b-friends")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")

# Your input format should match training: context turns + current turn
# Output: SPEAK or SILENT prediction for the target speaker
