Model Compression
This section provides transparency about the compression state of each model available on our platform.
We host a variety of open-source models from the community. We do not currently host pruned models on our public endpoints. All models served through our public endpoints are the original, unpruned versions.
All of our public models are unpruned. While we conduct research on pruning techniques like REAP (Router-weighted Expert Activation Pruning), these pruned models are shared with the research community on Hugging Face but are not available through our shared API. You can read more about REAP in our research blog
Cerebras uses selective weight-only quantization only during storage to preserve maximal quality. This means that the weights are stored in partial 16-bit / 8-bit / 4-bit, in-line with industry standards. For quality, sensitive layers are stored at full precision with dequantization on the fly, so operations are done in high precision. The activations, attention, and kv cache remain in full precision and unquantized.
