Libraries

How to use thinkingmachines/Inkling-Small-NVFP4 with Transformers:

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

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="thinkingmachines/Inkling-Small-NVFP4")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("thinkingmachines/Inkling-Small-NVFP4")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("thinkingmachines/Inkling-Small-NVFP4", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Sm120 support?

Currently I cannot produce a vLLM recipe that allows this to be served on a 2x RTX PRO 6000 system. Specifically, I cannot get past the “Paged KV not supported on SM 12.0 in this PR” error. I am on the latest nightly build of vLLM in a docker Ubuntu environment. Is support for this quant on sm120+ planned for vLLM? I would love to try this model out.

I think that is more of a question for the vLLM folks. Might be worth asking under their repo
