Pure quantizations of Qwen2-0.5B-Instruct for qwen2.java.

In the wild, Q8_0 quantizations are fine, but Q4_0 quantizations are rarely pure e.g. the output.weights tensor is quantized with Q6_K, instead of Q4_0.
A pure Q4_0 quantization can be generated from a high precision (F32, F16, BFLOAT16) .gguf source with the quantize utility from llama.cpp as follows:

./quantize --pure ./Qwen2-0.5B-Instruct-F16.gguf ./Qwen2-0.5B-Instruct-Q4_0.gguf Q4_0

Introduction

Qwen2 is the new series of Qwen large language models. For Qwen2, we release a number of base language models and instruction-tuned language models ranging from 0.5 to 72 billion parameters, including a Mixture-of-Experts model. This repo contains the instruction-tuned 72B Qwen2 model.

Compared with the state-of-the-art opensource language models, including the previous released Qwen1.5, Qwen2 has generally surpassed most opensource models and demonstrated competitiveness against proprietary models across a series of benchmarks targeting for language understanding, language generation, multilingual capability, coding, mathematics, reasoning, etc.

Qwen2-72B-Instruct supports a context length of up to 131,072 tokens, enabling the processing of extensive inputs. Please refer to this section for detailed instructions on how to deploy Qwen2 for handling long texts.

Model Details

Qwen2 is a language model series including decoder language models of different model sizes. For each size, we release the base language model and the aligned chat model. It is based on the Transformer architecture with SwiGLU activation, attention QKV bias, group query attention, etc. Additionally, we have an improved tokenizer adaptive to multiple natural languages and codes.
