## DFloat11 Compressed Model: `deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B` |
|
|
|
This is a **losslessly compressed** version of [`deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B`](https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B) using our custom **DFloat11** format. The outputs of this compressed model are **bit-for-bit identical** to the original BFloat16 model, while reducing GPU memory consumption by approximately **30%**. |
|
|
|
### 🔍 How It Works |
|
|
|
DFloat11 compresses model weights using **Huffman coding** of BFloat16 exponent bits, combined with **hardware-aware algorithmic designs** that enable efficient on-the-fly decompression directly on the GPU. During inference, the weights remain compressed in GPU memory and are **decompressed just before matrix multiplications**, then **immediately discarded after use** to minimize memory footprint. |
|
|
|
Key benefits: |
|
|
|
* **No CPU decompression or host-device data transfer** -- all operations are handled entirely on the GPU. |
|
* **Decompression overhead is constant** per forward pass and **independent of batch size**, making DFloat11 increasingly efficient at larger batch sizes. |
|
* DFloat11 is **much faster than CPU-offloading approaches**, enabling practical deployment in memory-constrained environments. |
|
* At **batch size = 1**, inference is approximately **2× slower** than the original BF16 model, but the performance gap **narrows significantly** with larger batches. |
|
* The compression is **fully lossless**, guaranteeing that the model’s outputs are **bit-for-bit identical** to those of the original model. |
|
|
|
### 🔧 How to Use |
|
|
|
1. Install the DFloat11 pip package *(installs the CUDA kernel automatically; requires a CUDA-compatible GPU and PyTorch installed)*: |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
pip install dfloat11[cuda12] |
|
# or if you have CUDA version 11: |
|
# pip install dfloat11[cuda11] |
|
``` |
|
|
|
2. To use the DFloat11 model, run the following example code in Python: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
import torch |
|
from dfloat11 import DFloat11Model |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer |
|
|
|
model_id = "DFloat11/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-DF11" |
|
|
|
model = DFloat11Model.from_pretrained(model_id, device_map="auto") |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id) |
|
tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.eos_token |
|
|
|
prompt = "Question: What is a binary tree and its applications? Answer:" |
|
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt", padding=True).to(model.device) |
|
|
|
with torch.no_grad(): |
|
output = model.generate( |
|
**inputs, |
|
max_new_tokens=256, |
|
do_sample=True, |
|
) |
|
|
|
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(output, skip_special_tokens=True)) |
|
``` |
