+# RPT BitNet 2B Pruned
+
+**Ternary (1.58-bit) language model with 42.6% sparsity, improved via progressive pruning + QAT/STE.**
+
+Based on [microsoft/bitnet-b1.58-2B-4T-bf16](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/bitnet-b1.58-2B-4T-bf16), this model was fine-tuned using:
+
+1. **Progressive magnitude pruning** (5% then 10%)
+2. **Quantization-Aware Training with Straight-Through Estimator (QAT/STE)** - 300 steps per level
+3. **Ternary snap** to {-1, 0, +1}
+
+The result is a model that is **better than the baseline** after pruning and ternary quantization.
+
+## Results
+
+| Metric | Baseline | This Model | Change |
+|--------|----------|------------|--------|
+| PPL (WikiText-2) | 25.13 | **16.39** | **-34.8%** |
+| Ternary weights | 100% | **100%** | - |
+| Sparsity (zeros) | ~33% (natural) | **42.6%** | +9.6pp |
+| GGUF size (I2_S) | ~1.3 GB | **~1.1 GB** | -15% |
+| CPU inference | Coherent | **Coherent** | - |
+
+## Key Finding
+
+Removing 10% of weights by magnitude from a ternary model **improves** perplexity by 34.8% after QAT/STE fine-tuning. This is counter-intuitive: pruning typically degrades models. In the ternary regime, low-magnitude weights appear to be noise that harms performance.
+
+## Sample Outputs (GGUF I2_S, bitnet.cpp CPU)
+
+```
+Prompt: "The capital of France is"
+Output: "Paris. There are also some cities that can be considered as their main cities,
+such as the city that has been capital of France since the 17th century."
+
+Prompt: "Water boils at"
+Output: "100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard atmospheric pressure."
+
+Prompt: "The largest planet in the solar system is"
+Output: "Jupiter. It is a gas giant planet that is about 318 Earths in size."
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### With PyTorch (HuggingFace Transformers)
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
+import torch
+
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
+    "CesarFavero/rpt-bitnet-2b-pruned",
+    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
+    device_map="auto",
+    trust_remote_code=True
+)
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("CesarFavero/rpt-bitnet-2b-pruned")
+
+inputs = tokenizer("The capital of France is", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
+outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=50, do_sample=False)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
+```
+
+### With bitnet.cpp (CPU inference)
+
+For CPU inference, use the GGUF I2_S file with [bitnet.cpp](https://github.com/microsoft/BitNet):
+
+```bash
+# Clone BitNet fork
+git clone --recursive https://github.com/microsoft/BitNet.git
+cd BitNet
+
+# Build (requires clang, not gcc)
+python setup_env.py --hf-repo CesarFavero/rpt-bitnet-2b-pruned-GGUF -q i2_s
+
+# Run
+python run_inference.py -m models/rpt-bitnet-2b-pruned/ggml-model-i2_s.gguf \
+    -p "The capital of France is" -n 50
+```
+
+**Important**: The I2_S format requires the BitNet fork of llama.cpp. Standard llama.cpp and llama-cpp-python do NOT support this format.
+
+## Training Details
+
+| Parameter | Value |
+|-----------|-------|
+| Base model | microsoft/bitnet-b1.58-2B-4T-bf16 |
+| Parameters | 2.4B (100% ternary) |
+| Optimizer | AdamW (lr=5e-4, wd=0.01) |
+| Technique | QAT with STE |
+| Pruning | Progressive magnitude (5% -> 10%) |
+| Steps/level | 300 |
+| Batch size | 8 |
+| Seq length | 128 |
+| Hardware | NVIDIA A100 (~40GB) |
+| Training time | ~7 minutes GPU |
+| Dataset | WikiText-2 |
+
+### Pipeline
+
+```
+microsoft/bitnet-b1.58-2B-4T-bf16
+    -> Progressive pruning (5% then 10% by magnitude)
+    -> QAT/STE fine-tune (300 steps per level)
+    -> Ternary snap to {-1, 0, +1}
+    -> Save HuggingFace format (this model)
+    -> Convert to GGUF I2_S (see GGUF variant)
+    -> Inference via bitnet.cpp (CPU)
+```
+
+## Limitations
+
+- **Evaluation limited to WikiText-2**: The PPL improvement needs validation on broader benchmarks (MMLU, HellaSwag, ARC)
+- **Short context tested**: Only tested with sequences up to 128 tokens during training
+- **I2_S format support**: GGUF variant requires BitNet fork of llama.cpp (not standard llama.cpp)
+- **Language**: Primarily tested on English text
+- **PPL improvement caveat**: The dramatic PPL improvement after ternary snap (33.07 -> 16.39) may reflect implicit regularization rather than genuine capability improvement. Broader benchmarks needed to confirm.
+
+## Part of RPT (Redes Preditivas Termodinamicas)
+
+This model was produced as part of the RPT project, which validates physics-inspired principles for neural network efficiency:
+
+- **Landauer's principle**: Sparsity (removing information) improves model quality
+- **Self-Organized Criticality**: The model naturally operates at the edge of chaos (Lyapunov exponent ~ 0)
+- **Predictive Coding**: Correction ratios decrease with depth (39.87 -> 0.21)
