Installation

its_hub provides a minimal core focused on algorithms, with optional language model implementations.

Core Installation (Algorithms Only)

For gateway integration - just algorithms and interfaces, minimal dependencies:

pip install its_hub

This includes:

• ✓ Self-Consistency and Best-of-N algorithms
• ✓ Abstract base classes (AbstractLanguageModel, AbstractOutcomeRewardModel)
• ✓ Only 2 dependencies: numpy, typing-extensions

With Language Model Support

For standalone use - includes OpenAI-compatible language model implementation:

pip install its_hub[lm]

Adds: OpenAICompatibleLanguageModel, LLMJudge, StepGeneration (requires openai, aiohttp, backoff)

With Experimental Algorithms

For experimental features - includes beam search and particle filtering:

pip install its_hub[experimental]

Adds: Process reward models, beam search, particle filtering algorithms

Development Installation

git clone https://github.com/Red-Hat-AI-Innovation-Team/its_hub.git
cd its_hub
pip install -e ".[dev]"
# or using uv:
uv sync --extra dev

Quick Start

Example 1: Gateway Integration (Core Installation)

Installation required: pip install its_hub (core only, minimal dependencies)

Gateway integration requires implementing two interfaces: AbstractLanguageModel for LM calls and AbstractOrchestrator for managing parallel execution with concurrency control and rate limiting.

import asyncio

from its_hub import AbstractLanguageModel, AbstractOrchestrator, SelfConsistency

# Step 1: Implement AbstractLanguageModel with your gateway's LM client
class MyGatewayLM(AbstractLanguageModel):
    def __init__(self, gateway_client):
        self.client = gateway_client

    async def agenerate_single(self, messages, stop=None, **kwargs):
        response = await self.client.generate(messages, stop=stop, **kwargs)
        return {"role": "assistant", "content": response}

# Step 2: Implement AbstractOrchestrator for concurrency control
# (or use the built-in LMOrchestrator from its_hub[lm])
class MyGatewayOrchestrator(AbstractOrchestrator):
    async def agenerate(self, lm, messages_lst, **kwargs):
        # Manage parallel calls with your gateway's rate limits
        ...

async def main():
    lm = MyGatewayLM(your_gateway_client)
    orchestrator = MyGatewayOrchestrator()
    algorithm = SelfConsistency(orchestrator=orchestrator)
    result = await algorithm.ainfer(lm, "What is 2+2?", budget=5)
    print(result)  # {"role": "assistant", "content": "4", ...}

asyncio.run(main())

The AbstractOrchestrator is the central coordination point — it controls how algorithms fan out parallel LM calls, enforces rate limits, and provides structured error handling. See Orchestration for details.

Example 2: Standalone Use with OpenAI-Compatible LM

Installation required: pip install its_hub[lm]

import asyncio

from its_hub import OpenAICompatibleLanguageModel, SelfConsistency

lm = OpenAICompatibleLanguageModel(
    endpoint="https://api.openai.com/v1",
    api_key="your-api-key",
    model_name="gpt-4o-mini",
)

algorithm = SelfConsistency()
result = algorithm.infer(lm, "What is the capital of France?", budget=3)
print(result)  # Most common answer from 3 generations

# Close lm for resource cleanup
asyncio.run(lm.close())

Example 3: Best-of-N with LLM Judge

Installation required: pip install its_hub[lm]

import asyncio

from its_hub import BestOfN, LLMJudge, OpenAICompatibleLanguageModel

lm = OpenAICompatibleLanguageModel(
    endpoint="https://api.openai.com/v1",
    api_key="your-api-key",
    model_name="gpt-4o-mini",
)

judge = LLMJudge(lm=lm, fallback_score=5.0)
algorithm = BestOfN(orm=judge)
result = algorithm.infer(lm, "Write a sorting function", budget=5)
print(result)  # Best response as judged by LLM

# Close lm for resource cleanup
asyncio.run(lm.close())

Key Features

• 🔬 Multiple Algorithms: Self-Consistency, Best-of-N, Beam Search (experimental), Particle Filtering (experimental)
• 🚀 Gateway Integration: Clean abstractions (AbstractLanguageModel, AbstractOrchestrator) for easy integration with AI gateways
• 🔄 Orchestration: AbstractOrchestrator provides structured concurrency, rate limiting, and error propagation for parallel LM calls — essential for production gateway deployments
• 🧮 Math-Optimized: Built for mathematical reasoning tasks
• ⚡ Async-First: ainfer() is the primary method; infer() is a sync wrapper. Concurrent generation with limits and error handling
• 🎯 Minimal Core: Only 2 dependencies (numpy, typing-extensions) for core install
