nvidia/Phi-4-reasoning-plus-FP8

Model Overview

Description:

The NVIDIA Phi-4-reasoning-plus FP8 model is the quantized version of Microsoft’s Phi-4-reasoning-plus model, which is a multimodal foundation model that uses an optimized transformer architecture. For more information, please check here. The NVIDIA Phi-4-reasoning-plus FP8 model is quantized with TensorRT Model Optimizer.

This model is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.

• vLLM
  

Supported Hardware Microarchitecture Compatibility:

• NVIDIA Blackwell
  
• NVIDIA Hopper
  

Preferred Operating System(s):

• Linux
  

Model Version(s):

The model is quantized with nvidia-modelopt v0.35.0

Post Training Quantization

This model was obtained by quantizing the weights and activations of Phi-4-reasoning-plus to FP8 data type, ready for inference with TensorRT-LLM. Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformer blocks are quantized.

Training and Testing Datasets:

** Data Modality

• [Text] ** Text Training Data Size
• [1 Billion to 10 Trillion Tokens]

Calibration Dataset:

** Link: cnn_dailymail
** Data collection method: Automated.
** Labeling method: Automated.

Training Datasets:

** Data Collection Method by Dataset: Automated, Synthetic, Human
** Labeling Method by Dataset: Undisclosed
** Properties: Training data is a mixture of Q&A, chat format data in math, science, and coding. The chat prompts are sourced from filtered high-quality web data and optionally rewritten and processed through a synthetic data generation pipeline. We further include data to improve truthfulness and safety.

Testing Dataset:

** Data Collection Method by Dataset: Undisclosed
** Labeling Method by Dataset: Undisclosed
** Properties: Undisclosed

Inference:

Engine: TensorRT-LLM
Test Hardware: H100

Usage

Deploy with TensorRT-LLM

To deploy the quantized checkpoint with TensorRT-LLM LLM API, follow the sample codes below:

• LLM API sample usage:

from tensorrt_llm import LLM, SamplingParams


def main():

    prompts = [
        "Hello, my name is",
        "The president of the United States is",
        "The capital of France is",
        "The future of AI is",
    ]
    sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

    llm = LLM(model="nvidia/Phi-4-reasoning-plus-FP8")

    outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

    # Print the outputs.
    for output in outputs:
        prompt = output.prompt
        generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
        print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")


# The entry point of the program need to be protected for spawning processes.
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
