Gemma-4-26B-MoE-GGUF

Celeste-Gemma-4-26B-MoE-Platinum-GGUF (Platinum Series)

Welcome to the Platinum Series release of Gemma-4-26B-MoE. To combat the inherent fragility of 128-expert architectures during compression, every variant in this collection was forged with a custom Importance Matrix (i-matrix). By shielding the critical gating weights, we’ve ensured that expert routing remains precise and intelligence stays intact, even at lower bit-rates.

High-fidelity GGUF weights for Gemma 4 (26B MoE / A4B).

🌟 Key Features

• Architecture: Gemma 4 Mixture-of-Experts (A4B).
• Expert Precision: Custom Importance Matrix (i-matrix) calibrated on wikitext-2 with 94-99% expert activation coverage to ensure zero routing-gate collapse.
• Context Stability: Native support for Proportional RoPE scaling for ultra-long context window retention.
• Workstation Optimized: Manually forged on a dual-GPU NVIDIA RTX 3090 + A4000 setup to ensure production-grade reliability and 24GB VRAM compatibility.

This repository contains the Platinum Series universal GGUF release of Gemma-4-26B-MoE. MoE models with high expert counts are fragile; these quants use an i-matrix to shield the critical routing pathways. This ensures that even at lower bit-rates, the model maintains the reasoning depth of the 26B engine while operating with the speed of a 4B parameter model.

🛠️ Usage (llama-cli)

To utilize the 128-expert routing and p-RoPE scaling, use the latest build of llama.cpp :

./llama-cli -m Gemma-4-26B-MoE-IQ4_XS.gguf -n 512 --flash-attn --ctx-size 8192 -ngl 99

---

🐍 Python Inference (llama-cpp-python)

To run these engines using the provided python script :

from llama_cpp import Llama

# Optimized for 24GB VRAM (RTX 3090)
llm = Llama(
    model_path="./Gemma-4-26B-MoE-IQ4_XS.gguf",
    n_gpu_layers=-1, # Offload 128 experts to VRAM
    n_ctx=16384,     # High-speed context window
    use_mlock=True   # Pin memory for expert routing stability
)

output = llm(
    "<|turn|>user\nAnalyze the structural efficiency of 128-experts in this MoE model.<|turn|>model\n",
    max_tokens=1024,
    stop=["<turn|>", "<|file_separator|>"]
)

print(output['choices'][0]['text'])

💻 For C# / .NET Users (LLamaSharp)

Fully compatible with .NET applications via the csharp script and the LLamaSharp library.

using LLama.Common;
using LLama;

var parameters = new ModelParams("Gemma-4-26B-MoE-IQ4_XS.gguf")
{
    ContextSize = 16384,
    GpuLayerCount = -1, // Distribute experts across RTX 3090 + A4000
    TensorSplit = { 1.5f, 1.0f } // Balanced split for dual-GPU Noida Forge setup
};

using var weights = LLamaWeights.LoadFromFile(parameters);
using var context = weights.CreateContext(parameters);
var executor = new InteractiveExecutor(context);

var chatHistory = new ChatHistory();
chatHistory.AddMessage(AuthorRole.System, "You are a helpful assistant.");

var session = new ChatSession(executor, chatHistory);

await foreach (var text in session.ChatAsync(new ChatHistory.Message(AuthorRole.User, "Validate the architectural integrity of this project."), new InferenceParams { MaxTokens = 2048 }))
{
    Console.Write(text);
}

🏗️ Hardware Requirements

• RTX 3090 / 4090: Recommended for full offloading of Q4_K_M through Q6_K variants.
• System RAM: 32GB+ for model loading and initial calibration.
• Storage: ~55GB required for the full GGUF collection.
