Model Detail
AMALIA-9B-0626-SFT
—AMALIA-9B-0626-SFT is a large language model with 9B parameters released by amalia-llm. The model is registered under the text-generation pipeline tag on Hugging Face, distributed under the permissive apache-2.0 license.
AMALIA-9B-0626-SFT ships with 9B parameters. Total weight footprint is approximately 9.2 GB, which is the relevant figure when planning local-inference VRAM. The apache-2.0 license is permissive, allowing commercial deployment and derivative work without per-seat fees, though attribution requirements still apply.
AMALIA-9B-0626-SFT is best fit for general-purpose chat and instruction-following workloads. Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
Trusting sovereign language models as scientific instruments: evidence from Portugal's AMALIA
arXiv:2607.08731v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: National language models are becoming publicly funded epistemic infrastructure. Public ownership, linguistic specialization, and open weights create a presumption of trustworthiness. Such an instrument, built by and for a language community,
Validity of LLMs as data annotators: AMALIA on authority
arXiv:2607.08731v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A national language model offers a linguistic community its own instrument for measuring what its citizens say and value. Portugal's AMALIA, a publicly funded 9B-parameter model for European Portuguese, appears competitive on agreement alone: asked to
AMALIA Technical Report: A Fully Open Source Large Language Model for European Portuguese
arXiv:2603.26511v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite rapid progress in open large language models (LLMs), European Portuguese (pt-PT) remains underrepresented in both training data and native evaluation, with machine-translated benchmarks likely missing the variant's linguistic and cultural nua
