Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct Autoround

Local pre-LLiMa checkpoint for Sima.ai. Do not upload this artifact.

Source revision: ebb281ec70b05090aa6165b016eac8ec08e71b17 (upstream Hugging Face commit; the shared local source directory is flattened).

Quantization

ComponentMethodWeight formatTargets
Decoder Linear layersAutoRoundsymmetric INT4, G256252

Stage 1 uses deterministic NeelNanda/pile-10k text calibration (dataset revision not captured; 512 samples, sequence length 1024, AutoRound 200 iterations, batch size 1). Stage 2 uses deterministic lmms-lab/flickr30k (dataset revision not captured), test[:512], for 512 image-text samples (sequence length 2048, batch size 1) used by the head and vision GPTQ stages.

Reproduction

bash
python quantize.py --model-path /path/to/source-model --output-dir /path/to/new-output

The directory contains quantize.py, recipe.yaml, and versions.txt.

Environment

Exact Python, CUDA, Torch, Transformers, llmcompressor, AutoRound, and compressed-tensors versions are recorded in versions.txt.

Deployment

This is the pre-LLiMa quantized Hugging Face artifact. Compile it separately for Sima.ai hardware and keep compiler output separate. No upload is authorized for this VLM batch.

Limitations

Quantization quality varies by language, visual domain, prompt format, context length, and runtime. MMStar and WikiText do not replace validation on the intended deployment workload.
