Readme

NOTE: This model has been heavily vocab-sliced to reduce non-coding and non-English tokens. YMMV. (Mandarin, Korean, Vietnamese, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, Russian)

==================================================
 PERPLEXITY QUALITY SCORECARD
 Base Model PPL      : 6.1805 (16-bit reference)
 Quantized Model PPL : 6.1942 (IQ4_NL target)
 Perplexity Drift    : +0.0137 (+0.22%)
 Quality Assessment  : [PASS] EXCELLENT (Near-Lossless / Gold Standard)

openNemo.jpg

Pure-PyTorch drop-in replacement for NVIDIA’s Nemotron-Cascade-2-30B-A3B.

Removes all external CUDA kernel dependencies (mamba-ssm, causal-conv1d) and replaces them with native PyTorch operations, making the model fully compatible with bitsandbytes 4-bit quantization and QLoRA fine-tuning on consumer GPUs.

30B total parameters, 3B active per token. Loads in 17 GB VRAM with 4-bit quantization.
