Catalogue only

This model is catalogued for reference. It is not hosted on LLM EU yet, and no first-party endpoint serves it here. Requests to it go to the provider directly, under that provider's own terms.

Summary

ERNIE 4.5 0.3B is an open-weight language model from Baidu with 0.4B parameters, published under Apache-2.0. The repository was created in June 2025 and is mirrored on Hugging Face. It takes text and returns text. It is a base checkpoint without instruction tuning. The published configuration records no context window, so this card carries none. The card is catalogue-only: LLM EU does not run this model. The publisher lists 2 languages, 1 of them among the languages the European Union publishes in.

When to use it

Strengths

  • open weights are published on Hugging Face and can be downloaded without a vendor agreement
  • Apache-2.0 licence, so commercial self-hosting is permitted without a separate agreement
  • at 0.4B parameters it fits on a single accelerator
  • the model page lists en

Limits

  • catalogue only — LLM EU does not run this model, and nothing on this card implies an LLM EU endpoint
  • no evaluation has been run by LLM EU
  • the published configuration records no context window, so the card carries none
  • at 0.4B parameters, the weights fit on a single modest accelerator
  • a base checkpoint: it answers nothing useful without fine-tuning or a task head
