đ SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct Quantized Model
This project provides quantized versions of the SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct model, offering various options for different usage scenarios.
đ Quick Start
If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of TheBloke's READMEs for more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.
⨠Features
- Multiple Datasets: Trained on a diverse set of datasets, including HuggingFaceM4/the_cauldron, HuggingFaceM4/Docmatix, and many others.
- Video-Text-to-Text: Capable of handling video and text input and generating text output.
- Quantized Versions: Available in various quantized formats for different performance and quality requirements.
đĻ Installation
No specific installation steps are provided in the original README.

About
Weighted/imatrix quants of https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct. Static quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct-GGUF.
Provided Quants
(sorted by size, not necessarily quality. IQ-quants are often preferable over similar sized non-IQ quants)

đ Thanks
I thank my company, nethype GmbH, for letting me use its servers and providing upgrades to my workstation to enable this work in my free time. Additional thanks to @nicoboss for giving me access to his private supercomputer, enabling me to provide many more imatrix quants, at much higher quality, than I would otherwise be able to.
