GGUF quantizations of
DJLougen/Ornstein-27B — a reasoning-focused fine-tune of Qwen 3.5 27B trained on
1,229 high-quality reasoning traces curated through a custom
Drift Diffusion Modeling (DDM) pipeline.
I'm a PhD student in visual neuroscience at the University of Toronto who also happens to spend way too much time fine-tuning, merging, and quantizing open-weight models on rented H100s and a local DGX Spark. All training compute is self-funded — balancing GPU costs against a student budget. If my uploads have been useful to you, consider buying a PhD student a coffee. It goes a long way toward keeping these experiments running.
Unlike typical reasoning fine-tunes that use large volumes of synthetic data, Ornstein implements quality-over-quantity:
