What is alpaca-native-4bit?
alpaca-native-4bit is a 4-bit quantized version of the original alpaca-native model, specifically optimized using GPTQ-for-LLaMa. This implementation focuses on reducing the model's memory footprint while maintaining performance capabilities through efficient quantization techniques.
Implementation Details
The model was quantized using GPTQ-for-LLaMa (commit 5cdfad2), implementing a 4-bit precision with a groupsize of 128. The quantization process was executed using the command 'llama.py /output/path c4 --wbits 4 --groupsize 128 --save alpaca7b-4bit.pt', resulting in an optimized model for inference tasks.
- 4-bit quantization for reduced memory usage
