Aitana-2B-SI-Instruct

Aitana-2B-SI-Instruct is an instruction-tuned generative language model from the Aitana family, developed by the GPLSI (Language and Information Systems Group) at the University of Alicante. Built on gplsi/Aitana-2B-S-base-1.0, this model has been fine-tuned to follow instructions effectively across Valencian, Spanish, and English, with particular emphasis on enhancing Valencian language capabilities.

Model Description

Property	Value
Base Model	gplsi/Aitana-2B-S-base-1.0
Architecture	Transformer decoder-only
Parameters	~2.25B
Languages	Valencian, Spanish, English
License	Apache 2.0

Aitana-2B-SI-Instruct is an instruction-tuned variant of Aitana-2B-S-base-1.0, fine-tuned on multilingual instruction data to follow user prompts and generate helpful responses across Valencian, Spanish, and English. The model was NOT instruction-tuned on Catalan data, though it retains some Catalan capabilities from its base model.

Training Data

This model was instruction fine-tuned on the ALIA Instruction/v12 dataset, composed of the following sources:

ins18	Instruct Legal Refugiados	VA	somosnlp/instruct-legal-refugiados-es
ins19	Amic-Paralelo	ES	gplsi/amic_parallel

Catalan data was removed from the instruction tuning to focus on Valencian, Spanish, and English, though some Catalan appears in multilingual datasets.

Intended Uses

This model can be used for:

Instruction following in Valencian, Spanish, and English
Chat and conversational applications requiring multilingual support
Text generation with task-specific prompting
Domain-specific applications in administrative, legal, or tourism contexts

Note: As an instruction-tuned model, it is designed to follow user prompts and generate helpful responses. It is not intended for use as a factual knowledge base.

How to Use

Transformers

import torch
from transformers import pipeline, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "gplsi/Aitana-2B-SI-Instruct"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
generator = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
)
# Valencian example
text = "Explica què són les Corts Valencianes i quina funció tenen."
result = generator(text, do_sample=True, top_k=10, max_new_tokens=100)
print(result[0]['generated_text'])
# Spanish example
text = "Describe las principales funciones del gobierno autonómico valenciano."
result = generator(text, do_sample=True, top_k=10, max_new_tokens=100)
print(result[0]['generated_text'])
# English example
text = "Explain the role of tourism in the Valencian Community economy."
result = generator(text, do_sample=True, top_k=10, max_new_tokens=100)
print(result[0]['generated_text'])
