# SandLogic Technology - Quantized SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct Models
## Model Description
We have quantized the SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct model into three variants:
1. Q5_KM
2. Q4_KM
3. IQ4_XS
These quantized models offer improved efficiency while maintaining performance.
Discover our full range of quantized language models by visiting our [SandLogic Lexicon](https://github.com/sandlogic/SandLogic-Lexicon) GitHub. To learn more about our company and services, check out our website at [SandLogic](https://www.sandlogic.com).
## Original Model Information
- **Name**: SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct
- **Model Type**: Small language model
- **Parameters**: 1.7 billion
- **Training Data**: SmolLM-Corpus (curated high-quality educational and synthetic data)
## Model Capabilities
SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct is designed for various natural language processing tasks, with capabilities including:
- General knowledge question answering
- Creative writing
- Basic Python programming
## Finetuning Details
The model was finetuned on a mixture of datasets, including:
- 2k simple everyday conversations generated by llama3.1-70B
- Magpie-Pro-300K-Filtered
- StarCoder2-Self-OSS-Instruct
- A small subset of OpenHermes-2.5
## Limitations
- English language only
- May struggle with arithmetic, editing tasks, and complex reasoning
- Generated content may not always be factually accurate or logically consistent
- Potential biases from training data
## Intended Use
1. **Educational Assistance**: Helping students with general knowledge questions and basic programming concepts.
2. **Creative Writing Aid**: Assisting in generating ideas or outlines for creative writing projects.
3. **Conversational AI**: Powering chatbots for simple, everyday conversations.
4. **Code Completion**: Providing suggestions for basic Python programming tasks.
5. **General Knowledge Queries**: Answering straightforward questions on various topics.
## Model Variants
We offer three quantized versions of the SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct model:
1. **Q5_KM**: 5-bit quantization using the KM method
2. **Q4_KM**: 4-bit quantization using the KM method
3. **IQ4_XS**: 4-bit quantization using the IQ4_XS method
These quantized models aim to reduce model size and improve inference speed while maintaining performance as close to the original model as possible.
## Usage
```bash
pip install llama-cpp-python
```
Please refer to the llama-cpp-python [documentation](https://llama-cpp-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to install with GPU support.
### Basic Text Completion
Here's an example demonstrating how to use the high-level API for basic text completion:
```bash
from llama_cpp import Llama
llm = Llama(
model_path="./models/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct.Q5_K_M.gguf",
verbose=False,
# n_gpu_layers=-1, # Uncomment to use GPU acceleration
# n_ctx=2048, # Uncomment to increase the context window
)
output = llm.create_chat_completion(
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You're an AI assistant who help the user to answer his questions"},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "What is the capital of France."
}
]
)
print(output["choices"][0]['message']['content'])
```
## Download
You can download `Llama` models in `gguf` format directly from Hugging Face using the `from_pretrained` method. This feature requires the `huggingface-hub` package.
To install it, run: `pip install huggingface-hub`
```bash
from llama_cpp import Llama
llm = Llama.from_pretrained(
repo_id="SandLogicTechnologies/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct-GGUF",
filename="*SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct.Q5_K_M.gguf",
verbose=False
)
```
By default, from_pretrained will download the model to the Hugging Face cache directory. You can manage installed model files using the huggingface-cli tool.
