# Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct-FP8-KV
- ## Introduction
  This model was created by applying [Quark](https://quark.docs.amd.com/latest/index.html) with calibration samples from Pile dataset.
- ## Quantization Stragegy
  - ***Weight***: FP8 symmetric per-tensor
  - ***Activation***: FP8 symmetric per-tensor
  - ***KV Cache***: FP8 symmetric  per-tensor
  - ***Note***: The Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct consists of two parts: the language model (MllamaForCausalLM) and the vision model (MllamaVisionModel). Here, we only quantize the MllamaForCausalLM.
- ## Quick Start
1. [Download and install Quark](https://quark.docs.amd.com/latest/install.html)
2. Run the quantization script in the example folder using the following command line:
```sh
export MODEL_DIR = [local model checkpoint folder] or meta-llama/Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct
# single GPU
python3 quantize_quark.py \ 
        --model_dir $MODEL_DIR \
        --output_dir Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct-FP8-KV \                           
        --quant_scheme w_fp8_a_fp8 \
        --kv_cache_dtype fp8 \
        --num_calib_data 128 \
# If model size is too large for single GPU, please use multi GPU instead.
python3 quantize_quark.py \ 
        --model_dir $MODEL_DIR \
        --output_dir Llama-3.2-90B-Vision-Instruct-FP8-KV \                           
        --quant_scheme w_fp8_a_fp8 \
        --kv_cache_dtype fp8 \
        --num_calib_data 128 \
