- Activation quantization: FP8
Release Date:
Version: 1.0
Model Developers:: Red Hat
ModelCar Storage URI: oci://registry.redhat.io/rhai/modelcar-granite-4-0-h-small-fp8-dynamic:3.0
Validated on vLLM: 0.13.0
Validated on RHAIIS: 3.3
Validated on RHOAI: 3.3

Quantized version of ibm-granite/granite-4.0-h-small.

Model Optimizations

This model was obtained by quantizing the weights and activations of ibm-granite/granite-4.0-h-small to FP8 data type. This optimization reduces the number of bits per parameter from 16 to 8, reducing the disk size and GPU memory requirements by approximately 50%. Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks of the language model are quantized.

Deployment

Use with vLLM

Install vLLM from main:

uv pip install -U git+https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm.git \
  --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/nightly \
  --no-deps \
  --no-cache


uv pip install compressed-tensors==0.12.3a20251114 --no-cache
uv pip install --upgrade torchvision --break-system-packages --no-cache
uv pip install cloudpickle msgspec zmq blake3 cachetools prometheus_client fastapi openai openai_harmony pybase64 llguidance diskcache xgrammar lm-format-enforcer partial-json-parser cbor2 einops gguf numba --no-cache

Initialize vLLM server:

vllm serve RedHatAI/granite-4.0-h-small-FP8-dynamic --tensor_parallel_size 1

Send requests to the server:

python

from openai import OpenAI

# Modify OpenAI's API key and API base to use vLLM's API server.
openai_api_key = "EMPTY"
openai_api_base = "http://<your-server-host>:8000/v1"

client = OpenAI(
    api_key=openai_api_key,
    base_url=openai_api_base,
)

model = "RedHatAI/granite-4.0-h-small-FP8-dynamic"

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum mechanics clearly and concisely."},
]


outputs = client.chat.completions.create(
    model=model,
    messages=messages,
)

generated_text = outputs.choices[0].message.content
print(generated_text)

Creation

This model was quantized using the llm-compressor library as shown below.

Creation details

Install specific llm-compression version:

uv pip install git+https://github.com/vllm-project/llm-compressor.git@refs/pull/2001/head --no-cache
uv pip install --upgrade torchvision --break-system-packages --no-cache

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

from llmcompressor import oneshot
from llmcompressor.modifiers.quantization import QuantizationModifier
from llmcompressor.utils import dispatch_for_generation
from llmcompressor.modeling import replace_modules_for_calibration
from llmcompressor.modeling.granite4 import pack_3d_experts


MODEL_ID = "ibm-granite/granite-4.0-h-small"

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

model = replace_modules_for_calibration(model)

ignore_lay = ["lm_head", "re:.*block_sparse_moe.router"]

recipe = QuantizationModifier(
    targets=["Linear"],
    scheme="FP8_DYNAMIC",
    ignore=ignore_lay,
)

oneshot(model=model, recipe=recipe)

print("========== SAMPLE GENERATION ==============")
dispatch_for_generation(model)
input_ids = tokenizer(
    "Describe Large Language Model", return_tensors="pt"
).input_ids.to(model.device)
output = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=35)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))
print("==========================================")

SAVE_DIR = MODEL_ID.rstrip("/").split("/")[-1] + "-FP8-dynamic"
print(f"Saving to {SAVE_DIR}")

model.save_pretrained(SAVE_DIR)
tokenizer.save_pretrained(SAVE_DIR)
pack_3d_experts(SAVE_DIR)

Evaluation

The model was evaluated on the OpenLLM leaderboard task, using lm-evaluation-harness. vLLM was used for all evaluations.
