Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-speculator.eagle3

Model Overview

• Verifier: meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct
• Speculative Decoding Algorithm: EAGLE-3
• Model Architecture: Eagle3Speculator
• Release Date: 09/15/2025
• Version: 1.0
• Model Developers: RedHat

This is a speculator model designed for use with meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct, 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 train_sft split of HuggingFaceH4/ultrachat_200k datasets. This model should be used with the meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct chat template, specifically through the /chat/completions endpoint.

Use with vLLM
