Use with transformers

Important: Please use the exact chat template provided by Llama-3 instruct version. Otherwise there will be a degradation in the performance. The model output can be verbose in rare cases. Please consider setting temperature = 0 to make this happen less.

See the snippet below for usage with Transformers:

import transformers
import torch

model_id = "aaditya/OpenBioLLM-Llama3-8B"

pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device="auto",
)

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are an expert and experienced from the healthcare and biomedical domain with extensive medical knowledge and practical experience. Your name is OpenBioLLM, and you were developed by Saama AI Labs. who's willing to help answer the user's query with explanation. In your explanation, leverage your deep medical expertise such as relevant anatomical structures, physiological processes, diagnostic criteria, treatment guidelines, or other pertinent medical concepts. Use precise medical terminology while still aiming to make the explanation clear and accessible to a general audience."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "How can i split a 3mg or 4mg waefin pill so i can get a 2.5mg pill?"},
]

prompt = pipeline.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
        messages, 
        tokenize=False, 
        add_generation_prompt=True
)

terminators = [
    pipeline.tokenizer.eos_token_id,
    pipeline.tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>")
]

Benchmark Results

🔥 OpenBioLLM-8B demonstrates superior performance compared to larger models, such as GPT-3.5, Meditron-70B across 9 diverse biomedical datasets, achieving state-of-the-art results with an average score of 72.50%, despite having a significantly smaller parameter count. The model's strong performance in domain-specific tasks, such as Clinical KG, Medical Genetics, and PubMedQA, highlights its ability to effectively capture and apply biomedical knowledge.

🚨 The GPT-4, Med-PaLM-1, and Med-PaLM-2 results are taken from their official papers. Since Med-PaLM doesn't provide zero-shot accuracy, we are using 5-shot accuracy from their paper for comparison. All results presented are in the zero-shot setting, except for Med-PaLM-2 and Med-PaLM-1, which use 5-shot accuracy.

Advisory Notice! 

While OpenBioLLM-70B & 8B leverages high-quality data sources, its outputs may still contain inaccuracies, biases, or misalignments that could pose risks if relied upon for medical decision-making without further testing and refinement. The model's performance has not yet been rigorously evaluated in randomized controlled trials or real-world healthcare environments.

Therefore, we strongly advise against using OpenBioLLM-70B & 8B for any direct patient care, clinical decision support, or other professional medical purposes at this time. Its use should be limited to research, development, and exploratory applications by qualified individuals who understand its limitations. OpenBioLLM-70B & 8B are intended solely as a research tool to assist healthcare professionals and should never be considered a replacement for the professional judgment and expertise of a qualified medical doctor.

Appropriately adapting and validating OpenBioLLM-70B & 8B for specific medical use cases would require significant additional work, potentially including:

  • Thorough testing and evaluation in relevant clinical scenarios
  • Alignment with evidence-based guidelines and best practices
  • Mitigation of potential biases and failure modes
  • Integration with human oversight and interpretation
  • Compliance with regulatory and ethical standards

Always consult a qualified healthcare provider for personal medical needs.
