🌟 Hy-MT1.5-1.8B-1.25bit-GGUF Key Features

World-Class Translation Quality Hy-MT1.5-1.8B-1.25bit is built upon the Hy-MT1.5-1.8B foundation model, a specialized translation model developed by Tencent Hunyuan Team through a holistic multi-stage training pipeline integrating MT-oriented pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, on-policy distillation, and reinforcement learning. The base model natively supports 33 languages, 5 dialects/minority languages, and 1,056 translation directions. With only 1.8B parameters, it comprehensively outperforms much larger open-source models (e.g., Tower-Plus-72B, Qwen3-32B) and mainstream commercial translation APIs (e.g., Microsoft Translator, Doubao Translator). For full details, please refer to the HY-MT1.5-1.8B and HY-MT1.5 Technical Report.
Sherry: Extreme 1.25-bit Quantization This model employs Sherry (accepted at ACL 2026), a hardware-efficient ternary quantization framework. Sherry introduces a 3:4 fine-grained sparsity strategy: for every 4 model weights, the 3 most important are stored in 1-bit ({-1, +1}), while the remaining 1 is zeroed out. This packs 4 weights into just 5 bits, achieving an effective 1.25-bit width with power-of-two alignment, compressing the original 3.3GB FP16 model to just 440MB, with minimal accuracy loss.

On-Device Deployment for the Most Phones Paired with our custom STQ kernel designed specifically for mobile CPUs, the 1.25-bit model achieves perfect SIMD instruction set alignment. This means even ordinary phones with limited memory can run high-quality offline translation smoothly. No internet connection required, and your data never leaves the device.
