Noema-2B — GGUF

GGUF builds of NoemaAI-labs/Noema-2B, a ~2B reasoning model post-trained from Qwen/Qwen3.5-2B (hybrid Gated-DeltaNet architecture), for use with llama.cpp and compatible runtimes.

For the full model description, benchmarks, training recipe, and limitations, see the base model card.

⚠️ Requires Qwen3.5 (qwen35) architecture support in llama.cpp

This model uses the Qwen3.5 hybrid Gated-DeltaNet architecture. It will only load in a llama.cpp build that includes the qwen35 architecture (linear + full attention layers). On an older build you will get an "unknown architecture" / unsupported-arch error. Use a recent llama.cpp with Qwen3.5 support and build from source if your package manager's version is too old.

Files

File Quant Size Notes
Noema-2B-F16.gguf F16 3.5 GB Full precision; conversion reference.
Noema-2B-Q8_0.gguf Q8_0 1.9 GB Near-lossless; highest-fidelity quant.
Noema-2B-Q6_K.gguf Q6_K 1.5 GB Very high quality, small quality loss.
Noema-2B-Q4_K_M.gguf Q4_K_M 1.2 GB Recommended quality/size balance.

All quants were produced from the same F16 conversion of the release weights and smoke-tested (load + generation) on each file.

Usage

Noema is tuned and evaluated in non-thinking mode, which is the default the embedded chat template applies. Pass --jinja so that template is used, and the model runs in its trained (non-thinking) regime automatically — no extra flags or prompt tags are needed.

Recommended sampling (the config Noema was evaluated under): --temp 0.7 --top-p 0.8 --top-k 20 --presence-penalty 1.5. Avoid --temp 0 / greedy decoding — this model family is documented to enter repetition loops under greedy sampling.

# One-shot, single-turn (non-thinking):
llama-cli -m Noema-2B-Q4_K_M.gguf --jinja -cnv -st \
  -p "A farmer has 17 red apples and 25 green apples. How many in total?" \
  -n 256 --temp 0.7 --top-p 0.8 --top-k 20 --presence-penalty 1.5

# Or run an OpenAI-compatible server (set the sampling params client-side,
# or pass the same flags here as server defaults):
llama-server -m Noema-2B-Q4_K_M.gguf --jinja -c 4096 \
  --temp 0.7 --top-p 0.8 --top-k 20 --presence-penalty 1.5
