Orkhon / bumin-mini
4M unified assistant smoke model for EN/TR/Kokturk behavior.
This repository is one member of the Orkhon model family, an auditable from-scratch LLM stack covering tokenizer, pretraining, post-training, evaluation, serving, and Hugging Face export.

Intended Use
- Inspecting and reproducing the Orkhon training/export path.
- Running small local demos on CPU/MPS/CUDA.
- Comparing Orkhon family members by training stage and data mix.
- Rune-to-Latin Old Turkic transliteration demos.
Not Intended For
- Reliable factual QA.
- Safety-critical decisions.
- Claims of state-of-the-art Turkish or general LLM performance.
- Treating Old Turkic transliteration as modern Turkish translation.

Usage
Install Orkhon from the source repo, then load this exported folder:
pip install git+https://github.com/UmutKorkmaz/orkhon
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from orkhon.export.to_hf import load_exported_model
from orkhon.tokenizer import load_tokenizer
path = snapshot_download("korkmazumut/orkhon-bumin-mini")
model, cfg = load_exported_model(path, device="cpu")
tok = load_tokenizer(path)
Use orkhon.serve.chat_cli.reply for the unified assistant members.

Limitations
This is a small research/education model family. The models can repeat, confabulate, and fail outside their narrow data scale. Public demos should keep the claim narrow: Orkhon is an auditable from-scratch stack with a Turkic branch, not a frontier assistant.
