Model Overview

damfle/ornith-9b-custom is a 9 billion parameter language model, fine-tuned by Damien FLETY from the Ornith-1.0-9B base model. This iteration focuses on optimizing for efficient inference, particularly through 4-bit quantization. The model is developed with Quantization-Aware Training (QAT) and uses the Muon optimizer, indicating a strong emphasis on computational efficiency.

Key Capabilities

  • Quantized Inference: Designed for low-latency, high-throughput inference in a 4-bit quantized format.
  • RAG Integration: Intended for seamless integration into Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows.
  • Optimized Training: Utilizes Quantization-Aware Training (QAT) and the Muon optimizer for efficiency.

Intended Use Cases

  • Efficient Deployment: Ideal for applications requiring fast and resource-light language model inference.
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation: Suitable for systems that combine information retrieval with text generation to produce more accurate and informed responses.

Future Development

Future plans for this model series include scaling to a 16B QAT 4-bit model and further development in merging embeddings for transformers architectures while maintaining separate embedding models for RAG.
