Quantized version of google/gemma-3-1b-it.

Model Optimizations

This model was obtained by quantizing the weights of google/gemma-3-1b-it to INT8 data type, ready for inference with vLLM >= 0.8.0.

Deployment

Use with vLLM

This model can be deployed efficiently using the vLLM backend, as shown in the example below.

python
from vllm.assets.image import ImageAsset
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

# prepare model
llm = LLM(
    model="RedHatAI/gemma-3-1b-it-quantized.w8a8",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    max_model_len=4096,
    max_num_seqs=2,
)

# prepare inputs
question = "What is the content of this image?"
inputs = {
    "prompt": f"<|user|>\n<|image_1|>\n{question}<|end|>\n<|assistant|>\n",
    "multi_modal_data": {
        "image": ImageAsset("cherry_blossom").pil_image.convert("RGB")
    },
}

# generate response
print("========== SAMPLE GENERATION ==============")
outputs = llm.generate(inputs, SamplingParams(temperature=0.2, max_tokens=64))
print(f"PROMPT  : {outputs[0].prompt}")
print(f"RESPONSE: {outputs[0].outputs[0].text}")
print("==========================================")

vLLM also supports OpenAI-compatible serving. See the documentation for more details.
