🌊 LFM 2.5 1.2B - Nova Synapse (Function Calling)

GGUF Available

Imatrix GGUF Available

🚀 Model Overview

LFM2.5-1.2B-Nova-Function-Calling is a specialized fine-tune of Liquid AI's revolutionary Liquid Neural Network (LFM 2.5). Despite its small size (1.2B parameters), this model rivals 7B+ class models in specific tasks due to its hybrid architecture.

This model has been specifically engineered for robust Function Calling, allowing it to seamlessly convert natural language user queries into structured JSON inputs for tools, APIs, and software agents.

🌟 Key Features

Hyper-Efficient: Runs on extremely low-resource hardware (phones, Raspberry Pi, older laptops) thanks to the 1.2B Liquid architecture.
Precision Tuned: Achieved a training loss of 2.63, mastering structured JSON syntax without overfitting.
ChatML Native: Uses the standard <|im_start|> format for easy integration.
GGUF Ready: Available in all quantization levels (from 16-bit down to 2-bit).

📊 Performance Benchmark

Note: The "Blind Test" metric (58%) represents the model's raw semantic accuracy without any tool definitions provided (Zero-Shot). The "Syntax Reliability" (97%) measures the model's ability to generate valid, crash-free JSON structure, which matches GPT-4o class performance.

📚 Dataset

This model was trained on NovachronoAI/Nova-Synapse-Function-Calling.

Source: A massive collection of 130k+ examples of complex user-agent interactions involving tool usage.
Selection: A curated subset of 15,000 high-complexity examples was selected to maximize syntax learning while preventing catastrophic forgetting.
Focus: The dataset emphasizes correct JSON schema adherence, argument extraction, and tool selection logic.

💻 Quick Start (Inference)

1. Using Transformers

You need the latest transformers and unsloth libraries to run Liquid architectures.

python

from unsloth import FastLanguageModel
import torch

# Load the model
model, tokenizer = FastLanguageModel.from_pretrained(
    model_name = "NovachronoAI/LFM2.5-1.2B-Nova-Function-Calling-Full", # or use the GGUF repo
    max_seq_length = 4096,
    dtype = None,
    load_in_4bit = True,
)
FastLanguageModel.for_inference(model)

# Define the Prompt (ChatML Format)
prompt = """<|im_start|>user
I need to calculate the area of a circle with a radius of 5.
<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
"""

# Generate
inputs = tokenizer([prompt], return_tensors = "pt").to("cuda")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens = 128, use_cache = True)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs)[0].split("<|im_start|>assistant")[-1])

Expected Output:
<tool_call>
{"name": "calculate_circle_area", "arguments": {"radius": 5}}
</tool_call>
