摘要

我們推出Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2，這是一款混合Mamba-Transformer語言模型，旨在提升推理工作負載的吞吐量，同時在與同規模模型相比時達到最先進的準確度。Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2基於Nemotron-H架構，在該架構中，傳統Transformer架構中的大部分自注意力層被替換為Mamba-2層，從而提高生成推理所需的長思維軌跡時的推理速度。我們首先使用FP8訓練配方在20萬億個token上預訓練了一個120億參數的模型（Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2-Base），然後對其進行對齊。接著，我們採用Minitron策略對模型進行壓縮和蒸餾，目標是在單個NVIDIA A10G GPU（22GiB記憶體，bfloat16精度）上實現最多128k token的推理。與現有同規模模型（如Qwen3-8B）相比，我們展示出Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2在推理基準測試中達到相當或更好的準確度，同時在8k輸入和16k輸出token等推理場景中實現高達6倍的推理吞吐量。我們將在Hugging Face上發布Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2、Nemotron-Nano12B-v2-Base和Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2-Base的檢查點，以及我們大部分的預訓練和後訓練數據集。

We introduce Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2, a hybrid Mamba-Transformer language model designed to increase throughput for reasoning workloads while achieving state-of-the-art accuracy compared to similarly-sized models. Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2 builds on the Nemotron-H architecture, in which the majority of the self-attention layers in the common Transformer architecture are replaced with Mamba-2 layers, to achieve improved inference speed when generating the long thinking traces needed for reasoning. We create Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2 by first pre-training a 12-billion-parameter model (Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2-Base) on 20 trillion tokens using an FP8 training recipe. After aligning Nemotron-Nano-12B-v2-Base, we employ the Minitron strategy to compress and distill the model with the goal of enabling inference on up to 128k tokens on a single NVIDIA A10G GPU (22GiB of memory, bfloat16 precision). Compared to existing similarly-sized models (e.g., Qwen3-8B), we show that Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2 achieves on-par or better accuracy on reasoning benchmarks while achieving up to 6x higher inference throughput in reasoning settings like 8k input and 16k output tokens. We are releasing Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2, Nemotron-Nano12B-v2-Base, and Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2-Base checkpoints along with the majority of our pre- and post-training datasets on Hugging Face.
