This model is a quantized version of unsloth/Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506. It was evaluated on a several tasks to assess the its quality in comparison to the unquatized model.
Model Optimizations
This model was obtained by quantizing the weights and activations of unsloth/Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506 to FP4 data type, ready for inference with vLLM>=0.9.1 This optimization reduces the number of bits per parameter from 16 to 4, reducing the disk size and GPU memory requirements by approximately 75%.
Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks are quantized using LLM Compressor.
Deployment
Use with vLLM
- Initialize vLLM server:
vllm serve RedHatAI/Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506-NVFP4 --tensor_parallel_size 1 --tokenizer_mode mistral- Send requests to the server:
from openai import OpenAI
# Modify OpenAI's API key and API base to use vLLM's API server.
openai_api_key = "EMPTY"
openai_api_base = "http://<your-server-host>:8000/v1"
client = OpenAI(
api_key=openai_api_key,
base_url=openai_api_base,
)
model = "RedHatAI/Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506-NVFP4"
messages = [
{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum mechanics clearly and concisely."},
]
outputs = client.chat.completions.create(
model=model,
messages=messages,
)
generated_text = outputs.choices[0].message.content
print(generated_text)Creation
This model was created by applying LLM Compressor with calibration samples from UltraChat, as presented in the code snipet below.
