Nemotron-4 15B

Research only · Language · Milestone

Nemotron-4 15B is a 15-billion-parameter multilingual language model from NVIDIA, described in a technical report posted on arXiv on 26 February 2024. It was trained on 8 trillion tokens of English, multilingual and source-code text; NVIDIA says it was built as a general-purpose model that fits on a single A100 or H100 GPU. [1] Primary source

  • Announced Primary source[1]Submission history, v1
  • ReleasedRelease date unknown
  • Status Research onlyDescribed in a technical report only. As of 2026-10-01 no NVIDIA weight release (Hugging Face or NGC) or NVIDIA-hosted access for this model was found. Primary source[1]
  • Successor of Nemotron-3 8B EditorialEditorial link along the Nemotron generation numbers: the report introduces Nemotron-4 without naming Nemotron-3 8B as its predecessor. Primary source[1]
  • Change · Size 15 billion parameters, up from 8 billion for Nemotron-3 8B.Compared with Nemotron-3 8B Primary source[1] [2]
  • Change · Training data Pre-trained on 8 trillion tokens covering 43 programming languages, against 3.8 trillion tokens and 37 programming languages for the Nemotron-3 8B base model.Compared with Nemotron-3 8B Primary source[1] [2]
  • Change · Architecture Uses grouped-query attention, rotary position embeddings and squared ReLU activations; NVIDIA's Nemotron-3 8B model cards describe a GPT-3 style network.Compared with Nemotron-3 8B Primary source[1] [2]
  • Feature MultilingualPre-training data covers 53 natural languages besides English and 43 programming languages. Primary source[1]Abstract; section 2, Data
  • Context window 4096 tokensGiven as the sequence length in the report's hyper-parameter table. Primary source[1]Table 1, sequence length
  • Parameters 15 billionThe report splits this into 3.2 billion embedding and 12.5 billion non-embedding parameters. Primary source[1]Abstract; section 2
