# Phi-3.5-Mini

Run **Phi-3.5-Mini** optimized for **Qualcomm NPUs** with [nexaSDK](https://sdk.nexa.ai).

## Model Description

**Phi-3.5-Mini** is a \~3.8B-parameter instruction-tuned language model from Microsoft’s Phi family.
It’s designed to deliver strong reasoning and instruction-following quality within a compact footprint, making it ideal for **on-device** and **latency-sensitive** applications. This Turbo build uses Nexa’s Qualcomm NPU path for faster inference and higher throughput while preserving model quality.

## Features

* **Lightweight yet capable**: strong performance with small memory and compute budgets.
* **Conversational AI**: context-aware dialogue for assistants and agents.
* **Content generation**: drafting, completion, summarization, code comments, and more.
* **Reasoning & analysis**: math/logic step-by-step problem solving.
* **Multilingual**: supports understanding and generation across multiple languages.
* **Customizable**: fine-tune or apply adapters for domain-specific use.

## Use Cases

* Personal and enterprise chatbots
* On-device AI applications and offline assistants
* Document/report/email summarization
* Education and tutoring tools
* Vertical solutions (e.g., healthcare, finance, legal), with proper guardrails

## Inputs and Outputs

**Input**:

* Text prompts or conversation history (tokenized input sequences).

**Output**:

* Generated text: responses, explanations, or creative content.
* Optionally: raw logits/probabilities for advanced downstream tasks.
