🏛️ The Temple of Janus (Web Experience)
We have deployed a dedicated interactive environment to showcase the essence of JaneGPT-v2 Janus.
Note: This is a visual and technical walkthrough; it does not feature a live chat interface.
- 🔗 Enter the Experience
- Best Viewed On: Desktop (Chrome/Edge) for full hardware-accelerated 3D effects.
Quickstart (2 minutes)
Install + first prediction
pip install -r requirements.txt
from janegpt_v2_janus.inference import JaneGPTv3NLU
nlu = JaneGPTv3NLU(
model_path="weights/janegpt_v2_janus.pt",
tokenizer_path="weights/tokenizer.json",
)
state = {}
result = nlu.predict("set volume", state=state)
print(result)
if result.get("type") == "command":
state = nlu.update_state(result, state)
Runtime wrapper (recommended for assistant flows)
from runtime.jane_nlu_runtime import JaneNLURuntime
rt = JaneNLURuntime(base_dir=".")
state = {}
out, state = rt.handle_turn("set volume", state)
print(out) # expected: clarify prompt for missing VALUE
out, state = rt.handle_turn("55", state)
print(out) # expected: resolved local command

What You Get
- Single-pass multitask prediction: domain + action + BIO slots.
- Runtime-safe clarification loops for missing required slots.
- Stateful follow-ups (for example, "that is not enough" after a volume change).
- Local command routing with controlled chat fallback.
- Compact deployment footprint: ~30.62 MB checkpoint.

Interactive Architecture Visualization
1. Tokenization & Embedding Layer
Input text is converted to token IDs and projected into a 256-dimensional embedding space.
Tokenizer
BPE, vocab=8,192
Max Length
96 tokens
Output Shape

2. Transformer Backbone (8 Blocks)
Bidirectional attention layers with residual connections. Each block processes hidden states through grouped query attention and feed-forward networks.
Attention Type
Grouped Query (GQA)
Query Heads
8 heads
KV Heads
4 heads (2:1)
Head Dimension

FFN Activation
SwiGLU
Normalization
RMSNorm
Causal Masking
OFF (bidirectional)
Dropout Rate
0.1
Grouped Query Attention reduces KV cache 50% while maintaining quality

3. Multi-Task Prediction Heads (Parallel)
Three independent classification heads process the backbone output simultaneously for domain, action, and slot predictions.
Domain Head
Input: Last token (pooled)
Arch: Linear(256) → GELU → Dropout → Linear(10)
Output: 10 classes
Arch: Linear(256) → GELU → Dropout → Linear(10)
Output: 10 classes
Action Head
Input: Last token (pooled)
Arch: Linear(256) → GELU → Dropout → Linear(33)
Output: 33 classes
Arch: Linear(256) → GELU → Dropout → Linear(33)
Output: 33 classes
Slot Head
Input: All tokens
Arch: Linear(256) → Linear(15 BIO)
Output: 15 labels/token
Arch: Linear(256) → Linear(15 BIO)
Output: 15 labels/token

4. Output & Post-Processing
Raw logits are converted to predictions. For slots, BIO tags are decoded into semantic spans.
Domain Output
10 classes
Action Output
33 classes
Slots Decoder

Limitations
- English-focused command language.
- Command NLU model, not an open-domain generative chatbot.
- MASSIVE and SNIPS mapped-intent accuracy is excluded from headline claims because mapping coverage is partial.
Use Cases
- Virtual assistant command routing
- Smart home intent classification
- Voice command understanding
- Chatbot intent detection
- Edge device deployment (small enough for embedded systems)
