Description

Inkling-Small is an efficient Mixture-of-Experts transformer model built to provide performance comparable to Inkling while using a much smaller active parameter footprint. The model has 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters, making it designed for strong capability with more efficient compute usage. Inkling-Small was trained on NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems and supports native reasoning across text, images, and audio. It offers context windows of up to one million tokens, making it suitable for long documents, large codebases, multimodal context, and extended agent workflows. Users can set reasoning effort from minimal to extra high to control the balance between speed, cost, compute, and task complexity. The model benefits from improved pre-training data, post-training with on-policy distillation from Inkling, and extended agentic coding reinforcement learning. These improvements helped Inkling-Small surpass its larger counterpart on reasoning and coding benchmarks. Its encoder-free multimodal architecture processes audio as dMel spectrograms and images as 40-by-40-pixel patches alongside text tokens. By combining efficient MoE scaling, long-context reasoning, multimodal input, coding strength, and adjustable thinking effort, Inkling-Small is built for practical high-performance AI deployment.

Description

Phi-4-mini-flash-reasoning is a 3.8 billion-parameter model that is part of Microsoft's Phi series, specifically designed for edge, mobile, and other environments with constrained resources where processing power, memory, and speed are limited. This innovative model features the SambaY hybrid decoder architecture, integrating Gated Memory Units (GMUs) with Mamba state-space and sliding-window attention layers, achieving up to ten times the throughput and a latency reduction of 2 to 3 times compared to its earlier versions without compromising on its ability to perform complex mathematical and logical reasoning. With a support for a context length of 64K tokens and being fine-tuned on high-quality synthetic datasets, it is particularly adept at handling long-context retrieval, reasoning tasks, and real-time inference, all manageable on a single GPU. Available through platforms such as Azure AI Foundry, NVIDIA API Catalog, and Hugging Face, Phi-4-mini-flash-reasoning empowers developers to create applications that are not only fast but also scalable and capable of intensive logical processing. This accessibility allows a broader range of developers to leverage its capabilities for innovative solutions.
