# JPharmatron-7B
<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->
JPharmatron-7B is a 7B large language model designed for pharmaceutical applications and researches.
## Model Details
### Model Description
<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->
The JPharmatron-7B is continually pre-trained using 8.8B tokens from Japanese and English datasets, based on Qwen2.5-7B. Compared to the JPharmatron-7B-base model, JPharmatron-7B has enhanced chat capabilities, obtained from Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct's chat vector.
- **Developed by:** EQUES Inc.
- **Funded by [optional]:** [GENIAC Project](https://www.meti.go.jp/policy/mono_info_service/geniac/index.html)
- **Model type:** Causal decoder-only
- **Language(s) (NLP):** Japanese, English
- **License:** CC-BY-SA-4.0
### Model Sources [optional]
<!-- Provide the basic links for the model. -->
- **Repository:** https://github.com/EQUES-Inc/pharma-LLM-eval
- **Paper [optional]:** [A Japanese Language Model and Three New Evaluation Benchmarks for Pharmaceutical NLP](https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.16661) (IJCNLP-AACL 2025)
## Uses
<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users of the model and those affected by the model. -->
This model is intended for applications in pharmaceutical paperwork and research. It is not validated for medical use or any other risk-sensitive use.
## Evaluation
<!-- This section describes the evaluation protocols and provides the results. -->
We evaluated our model, JPharmatron-7B, with other general / domain-specific models of a similar size.
### Testing Data
<!-- This should link to a Dataset Card if possible. -->
[JPharmaBench](https://huggingface.co/collections/EQUES/jpharmabench-680a34acfe96870e41d050d8) and two existing benchmarks (JMMLU (pharma) and IgakuQA) were used.
### Results
Compared to Meditron3-Qwen2.5-7B and Llama3.1-Swallow-8B-Instruct-v0.3, JPharmatron-7B achieved the highest score on all of the five benchmarks.
