JetBrains/Mellum-4b-sft-python

Model Description

Mellum-4b-sft-python is a fine-tuned version of JetBrains' first open-source large language model (LLM) optimized for code-related tasks.

Pre-trained on over 4 trillion tokens with a context window of 8192 tokens across multiple programming languages, and then fine-tuned, Mellum-4b-sft-python is tailored specifically for code completion in Python. The model follows a LLaMA-style architecture with 4 billion parameters, making it efficient for both cloud inference (e.g., via vLLM) and local deployment (e.g., using llama.cpp or Ollama).

Mellum was trained using Automatic Mixed Precision (AMP) with bf16 precision. The uploaded version on Hugging Face retains the bf16 format for public use.

Designed for integration into professional developer tooling (e.g., intelligent code suggestions in IDEs), AI-powered coding assistants, and research on code understanding and generation, Mellum is also well-suited for educational applications and fine-tuning experiments.

Limitations

• Biases: May reflect biases present in public codebases. For example it will likely produce code which is similar in style to the open-source repositories.
• Security: Code suggestions should not be assumed to be secure or free of vulnerabilities.

Sample Usage

Here are examples of how to run and sample from the model.
