About
Llamacpp imatrix Quantizations of dots3-note-prev by dots-studio Using <a href="https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/"llama.cpp</a release <a href="https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/releases/tag/b10569"b10569</a for quantization. Original model: https://huggingface.co/dots-studio/dots3-note-prev Model details: - Parameter count: 288B - Input support: text, image, audio (with mmproj file) - details - Speculative decoding: yes (MTP) - details - imatrix: yes - details How to run Prompt format Don't know which to choose?

To download all the parts to a local folder, run: You can either specify a new local-dir (dots-studiodots3-note-prev-Q80) or download them all in place (./) How to run These quants run with llama.cpp - installable in one line via llama.app: llama-server includes a built-in chat web UI, served at http://localhost:8080 by default. These quants were made with llama.cpp release b10569 - if this model's architecture is newly supported, you'll need that release or newer to run them. They also work in: LM Studio · koboldcpp · ramalama · Jan AI · Text Generation Web UI · LoLLMs · Atomic Chat Multimodal This model supports image and audio input. Alongside the quants, this repo includes the multimodal projector files mmproj-dots-studiodots3-note-prev-f16.gguf and mmproj-dots-studiodots3-note-prev-bf16.gguf, which pair with any quant above. llama.cpp downloads the mmproj automatically when using -hf as shown above; if you're loading files manually, pass it with --mmproj. MTP This model has MTP (Multi-Token Prediction) layers, and they are included in these quants MTP layers act as a built-in draft model, letting llama.cpp run speculative decoding for faster generation. To use them, add the following flag to your llama.cpp command: Note: the MTP layers are stored at Q40 in the imatrix quants (except for
