IBM publishes Granite for various purposes. For classification and structured responses, the model is selected by card and checked on the data of its process.

Classifier starts with a list of categories

Let the calls in the support training service be divided into payment, delivery and entry problems. Some of the requests do not apply to any section. To work with IBM Granite, first find in the model catalog an option designed for the desired text type and response format. After that, set the allowed labels and rule for an obscure case. Do not download the call history until it is clear which model and where the team will run.

What to Consider the Right Answer

Take an impersonal sample that has short messages, two themes in one query, and typos. Agree the expected categories with the person who is reviewing the applications. Ask the model to return a category and a brief reason. At the output, the application separately checks that the fields are read according to the scheme, and then compares the selected label with the standard. If the model has added text outside the desired structure, save this as a separate type of error.

Compare specific options

Record the model weight ID, prompt template, and runtime. When you change models, rerun the same set and note errors by category. If you need Russian responses, use Russian inputs even when the model description advertises multiple languages. Check the specific model license and hosting terms before deployment. Use the results to select a variant on requests that resemble real traffic.

Suitable tasks

  • Distribute appeals to agreed categories
  • Check the structured response fields before transferring to the application

The license terms and access to the weights are specified for a specific option. Managed calls and computing resources can be billed separately. Not all functions apply to each family variant.

From task to first result

Practical example

Task
Distribute appeals to agreed categories
What to prepare
Three anonymous applications, a Python result schema and a test directory stub.

Task brief or prompt

Extract the application number, subject and a sign of urgency according to the instructions. Leave unknown fields empty. Pass the result on to the validation scheme.

Expected result

A typed object with missing values.

How to check the result

  • Check the fields with the initial treatment.
  • Replace the directory with a test dependency and check the wrong format.
