About this model

Nemotron-Mini-4B-Instruct is a model for generating responses for roleplaying, retrieval augmented generation, and function calling. It is a small language model (SLM) optimized through distillation, pruning and quantization for speed and on-device deployment. It is a fine-tuned version of nvidia/Minitron-4B-Base, which was pruned and distilled from Nemotron-4 15B using our LLM compression technique. This instruct model is optimized for roleplay, RAG QA, and function calling in English. It supports a context length of 4,096 tokens. This model is ready for commercial use.
