Llama-3 CoT-ReAct LoRA: Advanced Multi-Step Reasoning Adapter
Architecture Overview
This model implements a sophisticated reasoning enhancement through Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) fine-tuning, specifically designed to augment Llama-3's capabilities with structured Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning combined with the ReAct (Reasoning + Acting) paradigm.
Technical Specifications
base_architecture: meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
adapter_type: LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation)
framework: PyTorch + PEFT
reasoning_paradigm: CoT + ReAct
parameter_efficiency: ~0.1% of base model parameters
LoRA Configuration
lora_config = {
"r": 64, # Rank decomposition
"lora_alpha": 32, # LoRA scaling parameter
"lora_dropout": 0.05, # Dropout for regularization
"bias": "none", # Bias training strategy
"target_modules": ['q_proj', 'v_proj'], # Targeted attention layers
"task_type": "CAUSAL_LM"
}
Performance Characteristics
Computational Efficiency
- Memory Footprint: ~200MB (LoRA adapter only)
- Inference Overhead: <5% compared to base model
- Training Efficiency: 100x fewer trainable parameters than full fine-tuning
Reasoning Capabilities
- Multi-hop Reasoning: Supports up to 8 sequential reasoning steps
- Structured Output: Consistent ReAct format (Thought → Action → Observation)
- Context Window: Optimized for 4096 tokens
Training Methodology
Dataset
- Primary Source: Mixture-of-Thoughts dataset
- Augmentation: Synthetic reasoning chains for edge cases
- Size: 349317 examples
- Preprocessing: Custom ReAct format transformation

Deployment Guide
Quick Start
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel
# Initialize base model with optimization
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
"meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto",
trust_remote_code=True
)
# Load LoRA adapter
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(
base_model,
"y-ohtani/llama3-cot-react-lora-8b",
torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
# Optimize for inference
model = model.merge_and_unload() # Optional: merge LoRA weights
model.eval()
