How to use Goader/gemma-3-4b-uk-matt with Transformers:

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

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="Goader/gemma-3-4b-uk-matt")
messages = [

            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly

gemma-3-4b-uk-matt

google/gemma-3-4b-pt transferred to the Ukrainian-centric Lapa tokenizer with MATT (Model-Aware Tokenizer Transfer). The tokenizer keeps the original Gemma vocabulary and adds Ukrainian tokens, cutting the token count on Ukrainian text by roughly a third. Only the input embeddings differ from the original model.

Recipe

Embeddings initialized with FOCUS (Goader/gemma-3-4b-pt-focus), then trained with the AIM objective against the frozen original model: layers 1–16 of 34, all_words_last_token alignment, MSE loss, lr 1e-4, original-vocabulary embeddings frozen.
One pass over 1.03M Ukrainian documents (Kobza corpus, 256-token windows), ~6 h on one H100.
Weights stored in bfloat16 with the full 262,208-row embedding table.

Results (Ukrainian, 3-shot, greedy, base-model prompts)

metric	gemma-3-4b-pt (original tokenizer)	FOCUS init	this model
Belebele uk (acc)	72.6	34.6	68.2
Global MMLU uk (acc)	51.0	28.7	47.8
FLORES en→uk (BLEU / chrF)	26.8 / 57.2	9.1 / 32.0	25.7 / 56.2
FLORES uk→en (BLEU / chrF)	42.0 / 67.9	5.1 / 27.0	40.3 / 66.6
WMT en→uk (BLEU)	5.1	1.6	4.8
XLSum uk (ROUGE-1)	6.5	1.5	5.8

The model recovers 94–98 % of the original on every task while reading Ukrainian with ~35 % fewer tokens.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Goader/gemma-3-4b-uk-matt")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Goader/gemma-3-4b-uk-matt", torch_dtype="bfloat16")

This is a base (pretrained) model, not instruction-tuned.
