This model is a quantized version of Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct. It was evaluated on a several tasks to assess the its quality in comparison to the unquatized model, including multiple-choice, math reasoning, and open-ended text generation. Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-FP8-dynamic achieves 105.4% recovery for the Arena-Hard evaluation, 99.7% for OpenLLM v1 (using Meta's prompting when available), 101.2% for OpenLLM v2, 100.0% for HumanEval pass@1, and 101.0% for HumanEval+ pass@1.
This model was obtained by quantizing the weights and activations of Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct to FP8 data type, ready for inference with vLLM built from source. This optimization reduces the number of bits per parameter from 16 to 8, reducing the disk size and GPU memory requirements by approximately 50%.
Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks are quantized. Symmetric per-channel quantization is applied, in which a linear scaling per output dimension maps the FP8 representations of the quantized weights and activations. Activations are also quantized on a per-token dynamic basis. LLM Compressor is used for quantization.
This model can be deployed efficiently using the vLLM backend, as shown in the example below.

This model was evaluated on the well-known Arena-Hard, OpenLLM v1, OpenLLM v2, HumanEval, and HumanEval+ benchmarks. In all cases, model outputs were generated with the vLLM engine.
Arena-Hard evaluations were conducted using the Arena-Hard-Auto repository. The model generated a single answer for each prompt form Arena-Hard, and each answer was judged twice by GPT-4. We report below the scores obtained in each judgement and the average.
OpenLLM v1 and v2 evaluations were conducted using Neural Magic's fork of lm-evaluation-harness (branch llama_3.1_instruct). This version of the lm-evaluation-harness includes versions of MMLU, ARC-Challenge and GSM-8K that match the prompting style of Meta-Llama-3.1-Instruct-evals and a few fixes to OpenLLM v2 tasks.
HumanEval and HumanEval+ evaluations were conducted using Neural Magic's fork of the EvalPlus repository.
Detailed model outputs are available as HuggingFace datasets for Arena-Hard, OpenLLM v2, and HumanEval.
