YCWTG/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct-int4-mixed-AutoRound

Language 中文|English

Model Details

This model is an mixed-bits INT4 quantized model with group_size 128 and symmetric quantization of Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct generated by intel/auto-round. Please follow the license of the original model.

Quantization Strategy (Intel MoE Recipe)

Layer Type	Bits	Notes
Expert layers (128 experts)	4-bit	MoE expert MLPs
Non-expert layers (attention, gate)	16-bit	Higher precision for quality
shared_expert_gate	16-bit	Skipped (shape not divisible by 32)
lm_head	Original	Excluded by AutoRound

Model Size

Bits	Model Size
Original BF16	~60GB
mixed INT4	~20GB (66% reduction ↓↓)

Quickstart

vLLM Usage

vLLM is a high-throughput and memory-efficient inference and serving engine for LLMs.

Generate the Model

# Build layer config for mixed-bits (Intel recipe)
layer_config = {}
for i in range(48):  # 48 layers
    prefix = f"model.layers.{i}"

    # Attention layers -> 16-bit
    for proj in ["q_proj", "k_proj", "v_proj", "o_proj"]:

Ethical Considerations and Limitations

The model can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. Because of the limitations of the pretrained model and the finetuning datasets, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.

Therefore, before deploying any applications of the model, developers should perform safety testing.

Caveats and Recommendations

Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model.
