## 🌟 Hy-MT1.5-1.8B-2bit Key Features
- **World-Class Translation Quality** Hy-MT1.5-1.8B-2bit is built upon the Hy-MT1.5-1.8B foundation model, a specialized translation model developed by Tencent Hunyuan Team through a holistic multi-stage training pipeline integrating MT-oriented pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, on-policy distillation, and reinforcement learning. The base model natively supports **33 languages**, **5 dialects/minority languages**, and **1,056 translation directions**. With only 1.8B parameters, it comprehensively outperforms much larger open-source models (e.g., Tower-Plus-72B, Qwen3-32B) and mainstream commercial translation APIs (e.g., Microsoft Translator, Doubao Translator). For full details, please refer to the [HY-MT1.5 Technical Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.24092).
- **Ultra-Compact 2-bit Quantization** Hy-MT1.5-1.8B-2bit employs industry-leading Stretched Elastic Quantization (SEQ) to quantize model weights to `{-1.5, -0.5, 0.5, 1.5}`, combined with quantization-aware distillation. This compresses the original 3.3GB FP16 model down to just **574MB** while maintaining near-lossless translation quality that surpasses models hundreds of GBs in size. The quantization details are described in the [AngelSlim Technical Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.21233).
- **On-Device Deployment** Optimized for Arm SME2-capable mobile devices (e.g., Apple M4, vivo x300), the 2-bit model enables fast, fully offline translation directly on your phone, no internet connection required. Your data never leaves the device, ensuring complete privacy.
