Trinity-Large-Preview-W4A16
Introduction
Trinity-Large-Preview is a 398B-parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with approximately 13B active parameters per token. It is the largest model in Arcee AI's Trinity family, trained on more than 17 trillion tokens and delivering frontier-level performance with strong long-context comprehension. Trinity-Large-Preview is a lightly post-trained model based on Trinity-Large-Base.
This repository contains the W4A16 quantized weights of Trinity-Large-Preview (INT4 weights, 16-bit activations).

More details on the training of Trinity Large are available in the technical report.
Quantization Details
- Scheme:
W4A16(INT4 weights, 16-bit activations) - Intended use: quality-preserving 4-bit deployment of Trinity-Large-Preview
Model Variants
The Trinity Large family consists of three checkpoints from the same training run:
- Trinity-Large-Preview: Lightly post-trained, chat-ready model undergoing active RL
- Trinity-Large-TrueBase: 10T-token pre-anneal pretraining checkpoint
- Trinity-Large-Base: Full 17T-token pretrained foundation model with mid-training anneals
Architecture
Trinity-Large-Preview uses a sparse MoE configuration designed to maximize efficiency while maintaining large-scale capacity.
