Llama.cpp hybrid layer quantization of MiniCPb7167M-V-4_5 by openbmb

Original model: https://huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM-V-4_5

The hybrid quant employs different quantization levels on a per layer basis to enable both high performance and small file size at the same time. This particular quant achieves a ~6.3G gguf with the same perplexity as a ~6.7G Q6_K GGUF. The quants employed are all K to avoid slow CPU or older GPU processing of IQ quants. For this file the Q6_K_H layer quants are as follows:

   LAYER_TYPES='[
   [0 ,"Q6_K"  ],[1 ,"Q5_K_M"],[2 ,"Q4_K_M"],[3, "Q4_K_M"],[4 ,"Q4_K_M"],[5 ,"Q4_K_M"],

   ]'
   FLAGS="--token-embedding-type Q6_K --output-tensor-type Q6_K --layer-types-high"

A Q4_K_H quant is also available:

Q4_K_L : Q4_K_M + attn_o = q6_k
Q5_K_L : attn_v = q8_0 attn_o = q6_k ffn_d = q6_k
Q6_K_S : Q6_K

Comparison:

Quant size PPL Comment
IQ4_XS 4.6G 7.4 -
Q4_K_H 5.2G 7.3 Hybrid quant with Q4_K embedding Q6_K output
Q6_K 6.7e9 7.24 Q6_K with default embedding and output
Q6_K_H 6.3e9 7.26 Hybrid quant with Q6_K embedding Q6_K output

Usage:

MiniCPM-V-4_5 is a vision capable reinforcement learning (RL) reasoning model. It can be used together with its multimedia projector layers to process images and text inputs and generate text outputs. The model appears to have been trained to optionally use think block prefixes (depending on image/prompt it may or may not create a think block prefix) The mmproj file is made available in this repository. To test vision mode follow the docs in the mtmd readme in the tools directory of the source tree https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/blob/master/tools/mtmd/README.md .

A llama.cpp bug fix for MiniCPMV inference was completed at b7167 which is minimum version which should be used to run model as it results in noticeably improved vision evals.

Benchmarks:

A full set of benchmarks for the models are given here: https://huggingface.co/spaces/steampunque/benchlm . Benches were run after b7167 fix for minicpm.
