Model Overview

Model Architecture: zai-org/GLM-4.6
- Input: Text
- Output: Text
Model Optimizations:

Version: 1.0
Model Developers: RedHatAI

This model is a quantized version of zai-org/GLM-4.6. 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 of zai-org/GLM-4.6 to INT4 data type, ready for inference with vLLM>=0.11.0.

Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks are quantized using LLM Compressor.

Deployment

Use with vLLM

This model can be deployed efficiently using the vLLM backend, as shown in the example below.

python

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_id = "RedHatAI/GLM-4.6-quantized.w4a16"
number_gpus = 4

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.6, top_p=0.9, max_tokens=256)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a pirate chatbot who always responds in pirate speak!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]

prompts = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=False)

llm = LLM(model=model_id, tensor_parallel_size=number_gpus)

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

generated_text = outputs[0].outputs[0].text
print(generated_text)

vLLM aslo supports OpenAI-compatible serving. See the documentation for more details.

Creation

This model was created by applying a script similar to LLM Compressor with calibration samples from UltraChat, as presented in the code snipet below.

python

from datasets import load_dataset
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

from llmcompressor import oneshot
from llmcompressor.modifiers.quantization import GPTQModifier
from llmcompressor.utils import dispatch_for_generation

MODEL_ID = "zai-org/GLM-4.6"

# Load model.
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_ID, torch_dtype="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL_ID)

# Select calibration dataset.
DATASET_ID = "HuggingFaceH4/ultrachat_200k"
DATASET_SPLIT = "train_sft"

# Select number of samples.
# Increasing the number of samples can improve accuracy.
NUM_CALIBRATION_SAMPLES = 512
MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH = 2048

# Load dataset and preprocess.
ds = load_dataset(DATASET_ID, split=f"{DATASET_SPLIT}[:{NUM_CALIBRATION_SAMPLES}]")
ds = ds.shuffle(seed=42)

def preprocess(example):
    return {
        "text": tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
            example["messages"],
            tokenize=False,
        )
    }

ds = ds.map(preprocess)

# Tokenize inputs.
def tokenize(sample):
    return tokenizer(
        sample["text"],
        padding=False,
        max_length=MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH,
        truncation=True,
        add_special_tokens=False,
    )

ds = ds.map(tokenize, remove_columns=ds.column_names)

# Configure the quantization algorithm and scheme with explicit parameters.
recipe = GPTQModifier(
    targets="Linear",
    scheme="W4A16",
    ignore=[
        "lm_head",
        "re:.*mlp.gate$"
    ],
)

# Apply quantization.
oneshot(
    model=model,
    dataset=ds,
    recipe=recipe,
    max_seq_length=MAX_SEQUENCE_LENGTH,
    num_calibration_samples=NUM_CALIBRATION_SAMPLES,
    pipeline="sequential",
    sequential_targets=["Glm4MoeDecoderLayer"],  
    trust_remote_code_model=True,
)

SAVE_DIR = "./" + MODEL_ID.rstrip("/").split("/")[-1] + "-quantized.w4a16"
model.save_pretrained(SAVE_DIR, save_compressed=True)
tokenizer.save_pretrained(SAVE_DIR)
