This is the TinySwallow-1.5B-Instruct model in MLC format q4f32_1.

TinySwallow-1.5B-Instruct is an instruction-tuned version of TinySwallow-1.5B, created through TAID (Temporally Adaptive Interpolated Distillation), our new knowledge distillation method. We used Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct as the teacher model and Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct as the student model. The model has been further instruction-tuned to enhance its ability to follow instructions and engage in conversations in Japanese.
