20GB Medical Reasoning
·2026.04.22 05:07
Key point
A 4-bit reasoning model based on DeepSeek-R1-32B has been released, reduced to 20GB.
Details
Chaperone-Thinking-LQ-1.0, based on DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B, has been open-sourced on Hugging Face.
The core is 4-bit GPTQ quantization and QLoRA fine-tuning.
- Compressed model size from about 60GB to 20GB using GPTQ
- Minimized accuracy loss via QAT including calibration
- Additional QLoRA training on medical and scientific corpora
- Removed the adaptive identity layer to keep the architecture's origin transparent
The published performance is as follows.
- MATH-500 91.9
- MMLU 85.9
- AIME 2024 66.7
- GPQA Diamond 56.7
- MedQA 84%
Speed was also improved.
- Throughput: 36.86 tok/s
- base DeepSeek-R1-32B: 22.84 tok/s
- About 1.6x faster, with median latency reduced by about 43%
The author stated that this model can run on a single L40/L40s GPU and was designed for on-premise medical customers who require that data never leave their premises.
