helenai/Phi-4-mini-instruct-ov-asym

microsoft/Phi-4-mini-instruct converted to OpenVINO with asymmetric INT4 weight compression, for inference with OpenVINO on CPU and Intel GPU.

Quick start with OpenVINO GenAI:

pip install huggingface-hub[cli]
pip install --pre -U openvino openvino-tokenizers openvino-genai --extra-index-url https://storage.openvinotoolkit.org/simple/wheels/nightly
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/helena-intel/snippets/refs/heads/main/llm_chat/python/llm_chat_manual.py
huggingface-cli download helenai/Phi-4-mini-instruct-ov-asym --local-dir Phi-4-mini-instruct-ov-asym
python llm_chat_manual.py Phi-4-mini-instruct-ov-asym CPU

In the last line, change CPU to GPU to run on Intel GPU.

Model export command:

pip install optimum-intel[openvino]@git+https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-intel.git
pip install --pre -U openvino openvino-tokenizers --extra-index-url https://storage.openvinotoolkit.org/simple/wheels/nightly
optimum-cli export openvino -m microsoft/Phi-4-mini-instruct --weight-format int4 phi-4-mini-instruct-ov-asym
