# OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1 for OpenMed MLX

This repository contains a **private MLX packaging** of [`OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1`](https://huggingface.co/OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1) for Apple Silicon inference with [**OpenMed**](https://github.com/maziyarpanahi/openmed).

[OpenMed](https://github.com/maziyarpanahi/openmed) is the main product experience:

- Install the Python package with `pip install openmed`
- Enable Apple Silicon acceleration with `pip install "openmed[mlx]"`
- Run the same OpenMed API you already use, now backed by MLX on macOS
- For Apple apps, use **OpenMedKit** from the same GitHub repository with a CoreML bundle

This MLX repo is meant to pair with:

- OpenMed GitHub: [https://github.com/maziyarpanahi/openmed](https://github.com/maziyarpanahi/openmed)
- OpenMed website: [https://openmed.life](https://openmed.life)
- Source checkpoint: [`OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1`](https://huggingface.co/OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1)

## Quick Start

### Python

```bash
pip install openmed
pip install "openmed[mlx]"
```

```python
from openmed import analyze_text
from openmed.core.config import OpenMedConfig

result = analyze_text(
    "Patient John Doe, DOB 1990-05-15, SSN 123-45-6789",
    model_name="OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1",
    config=OpenMedConfig(backend="mlx"),
)

for entity in result.entities:
    print(entity.label, entity.text, round(entity.confidence, 4))
```

You can use the source model ID directly through OpenMed, or download this private MLX packaging from [`OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1-mlx`](https://huggingface.co/OpenMed/OpenMed-PII-Telugu-BigMed-Large-278M-v1-mlx) for a preconverted path.

### Swift

Use Swift with **OpenMedKit**, not with MLX weight files directly.

1. Open Xcode and go to **File > Add Package Dependencies...**
2. Paste the OpenMed repository URL:
   `https://github.com/maziyarpanahi/openmed`
3. Choose the package product **OpenMedKit** from the repository.
4. Add a compatible CoreML model bundle plus `id2label.json` to your app target.

After that, import OpenMedKit in Swift:

```swift
import OpenMedKit
```

Then load your bundled CoreML model and label map:

```swift
import Foundation
import OpenMedKit

let modelFolder = Bundle.main.resourceURL!
let modelURL = modelFolder.appendingPathComponent("OpenMedPII.mlmodelc")
let labelsURL = modelFolder.appendingPathComponent("id2label.json")

let openmed = try OpenMed(
    modelURL: modelURL,
    id2labelURL: labelsURL
)
```

This private MLX artifact remains the right choice for:

- Python services on Apple Silicon
- local MLX inference on macOS
- private preconverted packaging on the Hub

If a given architecture or environment cannot be exported cleanly as `safetensors`, OpenMed falls back to `weights.npz` so the model remains usable.
