Qwen3-8B-speculator.eagle3
Model Overview
- Verifier: Qwen/Qwen3-8B
- Speculative Decoding Algorithm: EAGLE-3
- Model Architecture: Eagle3Speculator
- Release Date: 07/27/2025
- Version: 1.0
- Model Developers: RedHat
This is a speculator model designed for use with Qwen/Qwen3-8B, based on the EAGLE-3 speculative decoding algorithm.
It was trained using the speculators library on a combination of the Aeala/ShareGPT_Vicuna_unfiltered and the HuggingFaceH4/ultrachat_200k datasets.
The model was trained with thinking turned disabled.
This model should be used with the Qwen/Qwen3-8B chat template, specifically through the /chat/completions endpoint.
