🌟 Features

🧠 Intelligent AI	🔍 Smart Matching	🌐 Modern Web UI	🎯 Domain-Focused
Fine-tuned language model for accurate responses	Advanced semantic similarity using transformers	Clean, responsive interface with real-time chat	Specialized knowledge for cloud computing education

✨ Key Capabilities

• 🧠 Intelligent Responses: Fine-tuned language model specifically trained for Galaxy & Alibaba Cloud content
• 🔍 Similarity Matching: Advanced question matching using sentence transformers for precise answers
• 🌐 Web Interface: Clean, responsive web interface with real-time chat experience
• 🎯 Relevance Filtering: Smart filtering ensures responses stay within the knowledge domain
• ⚡ Fast Processing: Optimized for quick response times and smooth user experience
• 📱 Mobile-Friendly: Responsive design that works perfectly on all devices

🚀 Quick Start

📋 Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 (via conda)
• 8GB+ RAM (for model loading)
• Conda installed on your system

⚡ Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/Ahmadhammam03/Galaxy-Chatbot.git
   cd Galaxy-Chatbot

2. Set up conda environment ⚠️ CRITICAL - Required for proper functioning

   conda deactivate
   conda remove -n chatbot --all  # Remove if exists
   conda create -n chatbot python=3.10 -y
   conda activate chatbot

3. Install specific package versions 📦 Important for compatibility

   pip install "numpy<2" "huggingface-hub==0.19.4" "sentence-transformers==2.2.2"

4. Install remaining dependencies

   pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Download model files 🧠 Required for fine-tuned responses

   Due to GitHub file size limits, the fine-tuned model files are not included. You must download them separately and place in models/galaxy_alibaba_chatbot/:

   • adapter_model.safetensors (180MB)
   • training_args.bin

   See models/galaxy_alibaba_chatbot/DOWNLOAD_MODEL.md for detailed instructions.

6. Run the application

   python app.py

7. Open your browser 🌐

   Navigate to http://localhost:5000

⚠️ Important Notes

• Always activate the conda environment before running: conda activate chatbot
• The specific package versions are required for model compatibility
• If you get import errors, make sure you followed steps 2-4 exactly
• Model files: The chatbot requires additional model files (180MB total). Without them, it will use the base model (not fine-tuned).

🔧 Troubleshooting

🚨 Common Issues & Solutions

❌ Import Errors

Problem: ModuleNotFoundError when running the app

Solution:

conda activate chatbot
pip install "numpy<2" "huggingface-hub==0.19.4" "sentence-transformers==2.2.2"
pip install -r requirements.txt

❌ Model Loading Errors

Problem: Model fails to load or gives poor responses

Solutions:

• Ensure you have 8GB+ RAM available
• Download the fine-tuned model files (see step 5 in installation)
• Check that model files are in the correct directory

❌ Application Won't Start

Problem: Flask app doesn't start

Solutions:

1. Verify you're in the correct directory:

   ls  # Should show app.py, requirements.txt, etc.

2. Check conda environment:

   conda list  # Verify packages are installed

3. Test Python version:

   python --version  # Should show Python 3.10.x
