Laguna-S-2.1-NVFP4 is a quantized version of the Laguna-S-2.1 Mixture-of-Experts language model optimized for efficient local inference. It uses NVFP4 (NVIDIA FP4) compression on the expert layers, enabling lower memory usage while maintaining strong text-generation performance. The model is available on Hugging Face for download and can be run via popular inference libraries such as transformers or vLLM.
