LLM Edge Runner

This tool allows developers to efficiently run large language models on local devices or edge hardware by optimizing model loading, resource allocation, and execution. It includes failover mechanisms to handle resource constraints and fallback gracefully to smaller models or pre-defined responses when needed.

What It Does

  • Load and run large language models locally or on edge devices.
  • Check system resources to determine available memory.
  • Automatically fallback to pre-defined responses when resources are insufficient.

Installation

  • Python 3.8+
  • Install the following Python packages:
  • torch
  • transformers
  • psutil

Install the required packages using pip:

pip install torch transformers psutil

Usage

Run the tool using the command line:

python llm_edge_runner.py --model <model_name_or_path> --fallback <fallback_json_path> --input <input_text>

Arguments

  • --model: Path or name of the model to load (e.g., gpt2).
  • --fallback: Path to a JSON file containing fallback responses.
  • --input: Input text for the model.

Example

python llm_edge_runner.py --model gpt2 --fallback fallback.json --input "Hello, how are you?"
