🌟 New Featured Community Model: FP8 Llama-3.1-Storm-8B! 🌟

A big shoutout to Ashvini Jindal, Pawan Rajpoot, Ankur Parikh, and Akshita Sukhlecha for their incredible model contribution to the open-source community. This model outshines the existing Llama 3.1 8B in multiple benchmarks, making it an excellent choice for applications requiring both speed and accuracy. Best of all, it was compressed by utilizing Neural Magic's LLM Compressor, enabling up to 3X faster inference than the base model with the same accuracy! 

If you're creating or optimizing LLMs, check out LLM Compressor and share your compressed models with us at Neural Magic so we can feature your work!

Thank you to everyone who joined our recent vLLM office hours with Woosuk Kwon, co-creator of vLLM! We explored vLLM on AMD GPUs and Google TPUs, covered performance benchmarks, and discussed what's next. Missed it? Catch the recording here: https://lnkd.in/eYmSccN4

When you quantize down an LLM model, can you maintain its accuracy?

I used to think no, but the data says otherwise. For example, Llama 3.1 405B FP16 has an average Accuracy score of 86.63. If you quantize down this model from FP16 to INT4, its Accuracy score falls to 86.47. That’s a recovery ratio of 99.81%. 🔥 🔥 

In return, you get 4x more VRAM and higher performance. As people struggle to fit their models onto 8x H100s, a tiny loss in accuracy for 4x more VRAM sounds like a great bargain.

Secret sauce seems to be the GPTQ algorithm, combined with neural networks being robust to quantization.

📢 Introducing LLM Compressor: SOTA open-sourced framework for compressing LLMs (including Llamas)! 📢

Starting as an internal research project at Neural Magic, I could never imagine that nearly six years later, what I called neuralmagicML would evolve into the incredibly powerful and capable LLM Compressor framework. Thanks to the hard work of our incredible engineering team, this tool can compress LLMs of any size to remarkable levels while recovering full accuracy. (such as our recent Llama 3.1 405B results!)

We are thrilled to announce that we have donated this library and its innovative techniques to the vLLM community. By offering efficient, performant, and accurate solutions for large language models, we aim to empower researchers, hackers, and enterprises.

Why This Matters:
- Cutting-Edge Algorithms: Implement the latest techniques and best practices for top-tier model performance without extensive research.
- Superior Flexibility: Enjoy various compression techniques, quantization schemes, and sparsity options for a solution that fits your use cases.
- Community-Driven: This tool is open-sourced and seamlessly integrated with vLLM and Hugging Face to ensure compatibility and encourage future contributions.

We are excited to witness how the community will leverage this incredible tool! Dive deeper into LLM Compressor by exploring our blog and the repo:

Neural Magic Releases LLM Compressor: A Novel Library to Compress LLMs for Faster Inference with vLLM

Neural Magic has released the LLM Compressor, a state-of-the-art tool for large language model optimization that enables far quicker inference through much more advanced model compression. Hence, the tool is an important building block in Neural Magic’s pursuit of making high-performance open-source solutions available to the deep learning community, especially inside the vLLM framework.

LLM Compressor reduces the difficulties that arise from the previously fragmented landscape of model compression tools, wherein users had to develop multiple bespoke libraries similar to AutoGPTQ, AutoAWQ, and AutoFP8 to apply certain quantization and compression algorithms. Such fragmented tools are folded into one library by LLM Compressor to easily apply state-of-the-art compression algorithms like GPTQ, SmoothQuant, and SparseGPT. These algorithms are implemented to create compressed models that offer reduced inference latency and maintain high levels of accuracy, which is critical for the model to be in production environments....
