+# Model Card: SALAMA LLM
+
+**Model Name:** SALAMA LLM  
+**Developed by:** [Your Team or Organization Name]  
+**Model Type:** Large Language Model (LLM)  
+**Base Models:** UlizaLlama-7B, Llama 3.2, Google Gemma (2B–9B)  
+**Language(s):** Swahili, English  
+**License:** Apache 2.0  
+**Repository:** [Hugging Face Link Here]  
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+SALAMA LLM is the central **language understanding and generation module** within the **SALAMA Framework** — a scalable, end-to-end **speech-to-speech AI system** for African languages.  
+It interprets transcribed speech, performs reasoning, and generates contextually appropriate responses in Swahili and English.
+
+This model was fine-tuned on Swahili-centric instruction data to enhance fluency, comprehension, and cultural relevance for conversational and task-based applications.
+
+---
+
+## ✳️ Architecture
+
+SALAMA LLM builds on top of **UlizaLlama (7B)** and leverages **Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT)** using **LoRA/QLoRA** for resource-efficient adaptation.  
+Training was conducted on a mixture of:
+- Instructional and dialogue datasets in Swahili and English
+- Domain-specific corpora for comprehension, summarization, question answering, and translation
+
+---
+
+## 🧾 Training Data
+
+| Dataset | Source | Tokens / Examples | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|------------------|----------|
+| Jacaranda/kiswallama-pretrained | Hugging Face | 321M Swahili tokens | Base pretraining |
+| Google Gemma Swahili Fine-tuning | Internal dataset | 20+ prompt-response pairs | Instruction tuning |
+| Custom Swahili QA corpus | Local compilation | 50K examples | Conversational fine-tuning |
+
+---
+
+## ⚙️ Training Details
+
+- **Technique:** QLoRA Fine-tuning  
+- **Precision:** 4-bit quantization  
+- **Optimizer:** AdamW  
+- **Learning Rate:** 2e-5  
+- **Batch Size:** 8  
+- **Epochs:** 3–5  
+- **Hardware:** 1x A100 (24GB)
+
+---
+
+## 🧠 Capabilities
+
+- Contextual understanding of Swahili and English queries  
+- Instruction following and summarization  
+- Question answering and translation  
+- Conversational generation  
+- Named entity recognition and sentiment analysis  
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Evaluation Metrics
+
+| Task | Precision | Recall | F1 | BLEU | ROUGE | Accuracy |
+|------|------------|--------|----|------|--------|----------|
+| Question Answering | 0.955 | 0.782 | 0.879 | 0.50 | 0.61 | — |
+| Translation | — | — | — | 0.49 | 0.59 | — |
+| Sentiment Analysis | 0.968 | 0.943 | 0.954 | — | — | 97.9% |
+| Entity Recognition | 0.853 | 0.847 | 0.887 | — | — | — |
+
+---
+
+## 🚀 Applications
+
+- Conversational voice assistants for Swahili  
+- Educational bots and content summarizers  
+- Low-resource multilingual chat systems  
+- Research in African LLM adaptation  
+
+---
+
+## 🧩 Limitations
+
+- Performance declines for code-mixed (Swahili-English) slang  
+- May misinterpret rare dialectal expressions  
+- Dependent on STT transcription accuracy in full STS pipeline
