VBART Large (Turkish Summarization)

Turkish BART-style sequence-to-sequence model fine-tuned specifically for summarization. Not a chat model — purpose-built for input-document → Turkish-summary pipelines.

License: Apache-2.0·Context: 1,024 tokens

Overview

Turkish BART-style sequence-to-sequence model fine-tuned specifically for summarization. Not a chat model — purpose-built for input-document → Turkish-summary pipelines.

Strengths

  • Purpose-built for Turkish summarization — output quality beats general models at the task
  • Tiny footprint — runs on CPU or 2GB VRAM
  • Apache-2.0 license; commercial use unrestricted

Weaknesses

  • Encoder-decoder architecture — not a drop-in for Ollama/llama.cpp
  • Single-task model; can't be repurposed for chat
  • 1024-token input window limits summarization to short articles

Quantization variants

Each quantization trades model quality for file size and VRAM. Q4_K_M is the most popular starting point.
