Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Base

[!Note] This repository contains model weights and configuration files for the pre-trained only model in the Hugging Face Transformers format.

These artifacts are compatible with Hugging Face Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, etc.

The intended use cases are fine-tuning, in-context learning experiments, and other research or development purposes, not direct interaction. However, the control tokens, e.g., <|im_start|> and <|im_end|> were trained to allow efficient LoRA-style PEFT with the official chat template, mitigating the need to finetune embeddings, a significant optimization given Qwen3.5's larger vocabulary.

Qwen3.5 Highlights

• Unified Vision-Language Foundation: Early fusion training on multimodal tokens achieves cross-generational parity with Qwen3 and outperforms Qwen3-VL models across reasoning, coding, agents, and visual understanding benchmarks.
• Efficient Hybrid Architecture: Gated Delta Networks combined with sparse Mixture-of-Experts deliver high-throughput inference with minimal latency and cost overhead.
• Scalable RL Generalization: Reinforcement learning scaled across million-agent environments with progressively complex task distributions for robust real-world adaptability.
• Global Linguistic Coverage: Expanded support to 201 languages and dialects, enabling inclusive, worldwide deployment with nuanced cultural and regional understanding.
• Next-Generation Training Infrastructure: Near-100% multimodal training efficiency compared to text-only training and asynchronous RL frameworks supporting massive-scale agent scaffolds and environment orchestration.
