Multiple GPTQ parameter permutations are provided; see Provided Files below for details of the options provided, their parameters, and the software used to create them.
These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by Massed Compute.
This may not be a complete list; if you know of others, please let me know!
Provided files, and GPTQ parameters
Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.
Each separate quant is in a different branch. See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.
Most GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ. Mistral models are currently made with Transformers.
Explanation of GPTQ parameters
Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
Act Order: True or False. Also known as desc_act. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
GPTQ dataset: The calibration dataset used during quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ calibration dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama and Mistral models in 4-bit.
If you remove the --local-dir-use-symlinks False parameter, the files will instead be stored in the central Hugging Face cache directory (default location on Linux is: ~/.cache/huggingface), and symlinks will be added to the specified --local-dir, pointing to their real location in the cache. This allows for interrupted downloads to be resumed, and allows you to quickly clone the repo to multiple places on disk without triggering a download again. The downside, and the reason why I don't list that as the default option, is that the files are then hidden away in a cache folder and it's harder to know where your disk space is being used, and to clear it up if/when you want to remove a download model.
The cache location can be changed with the HF_HOME environment variable, and/or the --cache-dir parameter to huggingface-cli.
Note that using Git with HF repos is strongly discouraged. It will be much slower than using huggingface-hub, and will use twice as much disk space as it has to store the model files twice (it stores every byte both in the intended target folder, and again in the .git folder as a blob.)
Python code example: inference from this GPTQ model
Install the necessary packages
Requires: Transformers 4.33.0 or later, Optimum 1.12.0 or later, and AutoGPTQ 0.4.2 or later.
shell
1pip3 install --upgrade transformers optimum
2# If using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 12.x:3pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq
4# or, if using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 11.x:5pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq --extra-index-url https://huggingface.github.io/autogptq-index/whl/cu118/
If you are using PyTorch 2.0, you will need to install AutoGPTQ from source. Likewise if you have problems with the pre-built wheels, you should try building from source:
I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.
If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.
Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Original model card: Nanbeige LLM Lab's Nanbeige 16B Chat
Nanbeige-16B is a 16 billion parameter language model developed by Nanbeige LLM Lab. It uses 2.5T Tokens for pre-training. The training data includes a large amount of high-quality internet corpus, various books, code, etc. It has achieved good results on various authoritative evaluation data sets. This release includes the Base, Chat, Base-32k and Chat-32k.
The Base-32k version is based on the Nanbeige-16B-Base model, which uses YaRN interpolation method to modify the position encoding, and performs full parameter incremental pre-training with 20 billion tokens of Chinese, English, and code corpora, under 32k max length.
The Chat version and Chat-32k version are based on the Nanbeige-16B-Base model and Nanbeige-16B-Base-32k model respectively. They have undergone extensive human-aligned training.
If you need to deal with longer contexts, we recommend using Nanbeige-16B-Base-32k and Nanbeige-16B-Chat-32k.
This repository is the one for Nanbeige-16B-Chat model.
While we place great emphasis on the safety of the model during the training process, striving to ensure that its outputs align with ethical and legal requirements, it may not completely avoid generating unexpected outputs due to the model's size and probabilistic nature. These outputs may include harmful content such as bias or discrimination. Please don't propagate such content. We do not assume any responsibility for the consequences resulting from the dissemination of inappropriate information.
