# Recipe GPT-2 LoRA Model

A fine-tuned GPT-2 model for recipe recommendations using LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation).

## Model Description

This model generates personalized recipe suggestions based on:
- Available ingredients
- Dietary preferences
- Cooking time constraints
- Cuisine preferences

## Usage

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
from peft import PeftModel

# Load base model and tokenizer
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("gpt2")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("gpt2")

# Load LoRA adapter
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "nutrientartcd/recipe-gpt2-lora")

# Generate recipe suggestion
prompt = "User: I have chicken, garlic, rice. I'm looking for something ready in about 30 minutes.\nAssistant: "
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=100, temperature=0.7)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
```

## Training Data

Trained on a recipe dataset with user interactions and ratings, fine-tuned to provide conversational recipe recommendations.

## Model Details

- **Base Model**: GPT-2
- **Fine-tuning Method**: LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation)
- **Training Framework**: Transformers + PEFT
- **Language**: English
- **Task**: Conversational recipe recommendation

## Limitations

- English language only
- May generate fictional recipe names
- Nutritional information not guaranteed to be accurate
- Requires proper prompt format for optimal results

## Prompt Format

The model expects prompts in this conversation format:
```
User: I have [ingredients]. I'm looking for something ready in about [time] minutes. Preferences: [preferences].
Assistant: 
```
