Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base
Model Summary: Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base is a decoder-only, long-context language model designed for a wide range of text-to-text generation tasks. It also supports Fill-in-the-Middle (FIM) code completion through the use of specialized prefix and suffix tokens. The model is trained from scratch on approximately 18 trillion tokens following a four-stage training strategy: 10 trillion tokens in the first stage, 5 trillion in the second, 2 trillion in the third, and 0.5 trillion in the final stage.
- Developers: Granite Team, IBM
- HF Collection: Granite 4.0 Language Models HF Collection
- GitHub Repository: ibm-granite/granite-4.0-language-models
- Website: Granite Docs
- Release Date: October 2nd, 2025
- License: Apache 2.0
Supported Languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Portuguese, Arabic, Czech, Italian, Korean, Dutch, and Chinese. Users may finetune Granite 4.0 models for languages beyond these languages.
Intended Use: Prominent use cases of LLMs in text-to-text generation include summarization, text classification, extraction, question-answering, code-completion (including FIM), and long-context generation tasks. All Granite Base models are able to handle these tasks as they were trained on a large amount of data from various domains. Moreover, they can serve as baseline to create specialized models for specific application scenarios.
Generation: This is a simple example of how to use Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base model.
Install the following libraries:
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio
pip install accelerate
pip install transformers
Then, copy the code snippet below to run the example.
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
device = "cuda"
model_path = "ibm-granite/granite-4.0-h-micro-base"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path)
# drop device_map if running on CPU
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_path, device_map=device)
model.eval()
# change input text as desired
input_text = "The capital of France is"
# tokenize the text
input_tokens = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to(device)
# generate output tokens
output = model.generate(**input_tokens, max_length=10)
# decode output tokens into text
output = tokenizer.batch_decode(output)
# print output
print(output[0])
Expected output:
The capital of France is Paris.

Intra-rack communication occurs via the 72-GPU NVLink domain, and a non-blocking, full Fat-Tree NDR 400 Gb/s InfiniBand network provides inter-rack communication. This cluster provides a scalable and efficient infrastructure for training our models over thousands of GPUs.
Ethical Considerations and Limitations: The use of Large Language Models involves risks and ethical considerations people must be aware of, including but not limited to: bias and fairness, misinformation, and autonomous decision-making. Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base model is not the exception in this regard. Even though this model is suited for multiple generative AI tasks, it has not undergone any safety alignment, there it may produce problematic outputs. Additionally, it remains uncertain whether smaller models might exhibit increased susceptibility to hallucination in generation scenarios by copying text verbatim from the training dataset due to their reduced sizes and memorization capacities. This aspect is currently an active area of research, and we anticipate more rigorous exploration, comprehension, and mitigations in this domain. Regarding ethics, a latent risk associated with all Large Language Models is their malicious utilization. We urge the community to use Granite-4.0-H-Micro-Base model with ethical intentions and in a responsible way.
