chandra-ocr-2-AWQ-W4A16

chandra-ocr-2 - AWQ-W4A16

datalab-to/chandra-ocr-2 quantized to AWQ-W4A16 (4-bit weights).

What this is

Same footprint as W4A16 but calibrates faster and usually holds up better on instruction-tuned and multilingual models. Start here.

Caveat. Asymmetric; a few older vLLM kernels prefer symmetric W4A16.

Usage

vllm serve Sohailhosseini/chandra-ocr-2-AWQ-W4A16 \
  --max-model-len 32768

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

if __name__ == "__main__":
    llm = LLM("Sohailhosseini/chandra-ocr-2-AWQ-W4A16", max_model_len=32768)
    out = llm.chat(
        [{"role": "user", "content": "What is quantization? Answer in one sentence."}],
        SamplingParams(temperature=0.6, max_tokens=512),
    )
    print(out[0].outputs[0].text)

Produced with HF-quantized. recipe.yaml in this repo is the exact modifier stack that was applied, and the scheme, ignored layers, calibration set and hardware are in the table above.

Licence is inherited from the source model. Quantization does not change what you are permitted to do with the weights.
