# Quantized Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct
This repository contains 8-bit and 4-bit quantized versions of the Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct model using GPTQ. Quantization significantly reduces the model's size and memory footprint, enabling faster inference on resource-constrained devices while maintaining reasonable performance.
## Model Description
The Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct is a powerful language model developed by Qwen for instructional tasks. These quantized versions offer a more efficient way to deploy and utilize this model.
## Quantization Details
* **Quantization Method:** GPTQ (Generative Pretrained Transformer Quantization)
* **Quantization Bits:** 8-bit and 4-bit versions available.
* **Dataset:** The model was quantized using a subset of the "fka/awesome-chatgpt-prompts" dataset.
## Usage
To use the quantized models, follow these steps:
**Install Dependencies:**
```bash
pip install transformers accelerate bitsandbytes auto-gptq optimum
```
## Performance
The quantized models offer a significant reduction in size and memory usage compared to the original model. While there might be a slight decrease in performance, the trade-off is often beneficial for deployment on devices with limited resources.
## Disclaimer
These quantized models are provided for research and experimentation purposes. We do not guarantee their performance or suitability for specific applications.
