LFM 2.5-8B-A1B Abliterated — GGUF Quantizations
GGUF quantizations of DuoNeural/LFM2.5-8B-A1B-Abliterated, which is a DuoNeural abliteration of Liquid AI's LFM 2.5-8B-A1B.
All capabilities fully preserved. 100% factual accuracy, JSON generation, and math reasoning. 5/6 refusal behavior removed.
Available Files
| Filename | Quantization | Size | RAM Required |
|---|---|---|---|
lfm25-8b-abliterated-q5_k_m.gguf |
Q5_K_M | 5.7 GB | ~8 GB |
lfm25-8b-abliterated-q4_k_m.gguf |
Q4_K_M | 4.9 GB | ~6 GB |
Recommended: Q5_K_M for best quality/size balance.
Inference Speed Benchmarks
| Hardware | Quantization | Generation | Prefill | Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8GB) | Q4_K_M | 63.88 t/s | 0.41s | 128k (full) ✓ |
| NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8GB) | Q5_K_M | 31.05 t/s | 0.70s | 64k confirmed ✓ |
| NVIDIA RTX 3090 (pod) | Q4_K_M | 388 t/s | ~250 t/s | 128k ✓ |
The GTX 1070 results are remarkable — a 10-year-old consumer GPU (released June 2016) fully loading the 128k context window of a reasoning model at 63 t/s. This model is efficient.
Usage with llama.cpp
# Download
huggingface-cli download DuoNeural/LFM2.5-8B-A1B-Abliterated-GGUF \
lfm25-8b-abliterated-q5_k_m.gguf
# Run
./llama-cli -m lfm25-8b-abliterated-q5_k_m.gguf \
--chat-template chatml \
-p "Your prompt here" \
-n 512
Usage with Ollama / LM Studio
Import the GGUF file directly. The model uses ChatML template format.
KL Divergence (Distribution Shift)
Measured via Heretic v1.2.0 methodology (100 benign prompts, full vocab, first-token logits):
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| KL(abliterated || original) | 1.06 × 10⁻⁷ nats |
Near-zero KL on benign prompts confirms the orthogonal projection is surgical: the refusal direction is minimally activated on benign inputs, leaving factual/coding/math generation untouched. See the BF16 model card for full methodology comparison vs LoRA-based abliteration.
About the Abliteration
See DuoNeural/LFM2.5-8B-A1B-Abliterated for full methodology and validation results.
Quick summary:
- Targets all 6 full-attention GQA layers (positions 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 21)
- alpha=1.5 for reasoning model (higher than standard due to
<think>CoT architecture) - Correct WRITER and READER projection formulas
- 5/6 test prompts answered post-abliteration; original answered ~1/6
- Zero capability degradation
Note: Model card will be updated with paper citation when the associated DuoNeural research paper on Dual Horizon Processing in Hybrid Architectures is published.
