# gemma-3-4b-it-quantized.w4a16
## Model Overview
- **Model Architecture:** google/gemma-3-4b-it
- **Input:** Vision-Text
- **Output:** Text
- **Model Optimizations:**
- **Weight quantization:** INT4
- **Activation quantization:** FP16
- **Release Date:** 6/4/2025
- **Version:** 1.0
- **Model Developers:** RedHatAI
Quantized version of [google/gemma-3-4b-it](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-3-4b-it).
### Model Optimizations
This model was obtained by quantizing the weights of [google/gemma-3-4b-it](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-3-4b-it) to INT4 data type, ready for inference with vLLM >= 0.8.0.
## Deployment
### Use with vLLM
This model can be deployed efficiently using the [vLLM](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/) backend, as shown in the example below.
```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
from vllm.assets.image import ImageAsset
from transformers import AutoProcessor
# Define model name once
model_name = "RedHatAI/gemma-3-4b-it-quantized.w4a16"
# Load image and processor
image = ImageAsset("cherry_blossom").pil_image.convert("RGB")
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True)
# Build multimodal prompt
chat = [
{"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "image"}, {"type": "text", "text": "What is the content of this image?"}]},
{"role": "assistant", "content": []}
]
prompt = processor.apply_chat_template(chat, add_generation_prompt=True)
# Initialize model
llm = LLM(model=model_name, trust_remote_code=True)
# Run inference
inputs = {"prompt": prompt, "multi_modal_data": {"image": [image]}}
outputs = llm.generate(inputs, SamplingParams(temperature=0.2, max_tokens=64))
# Display result
print("RESPONSE:", outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
```
vLLM also supports OpenAI-compatible serving. See the [documentation](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/) for more details.
