Instructions to use SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B", trust_remote_code=True, dtype="auto")

Install from pip and serve model

# Install vLLM from pip:
pip install vllm
# Start the vLLM server:
vllm serve "SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B"
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B

SGLang

How to use SparseLLM/DECO-0.2B with SGLang:

Install from pip and serve model

Add library_name to metadata

Browse files

Hi! I'm Niels from the Hugging Face community science team. I noticed that this model is compatible with the `transformers` library but doesn't have the `library_name` specified in its metadata.

This PR adds `library_name: transformers` to the YAML header, which enables the "Use in Transformers" button on the Hub and improves the model's discoverability and automated code snippets.
