Model Overview

Description:

Mistral-NeMo is a Large Language Model (LLM) composed of 12B parameters. This model leads accuracy on popular benchmarks across common sense reasoning, coding, math, multilingual and multi-turn chat tasks; it significantly outperforms existing models smaller or similar in size.

The NVIDIA Mistral-Nemo-12B Instruct ONNX INT4 model is quantized with TensorRT Model Optimizer.

Steps followed to generate this quantized model:

• Download Mistral-Nemo-12B Instruct model in Pytorch bfloat16 format from HuggingFace.

• Convert PyTorch model to ONNX FP16 using onnxruntime-genai model builder.

• Quantize Mistral-Nemo-12B Instruct ONNX FP16 model to Mistral-Nemo-12B Instruct ONNX INT4 AWQ model using TensorRT Model Optimizer – Windows.
