Qwen3.5-27B-abliterated
Unrestricted version of
Qwen/Qwen3.5-27B, created with
Abliterix — automated LLM abliteration via orthogonalized steering and Bayesian optimization.
Highlights
| Metric | Value |
|---|
| Refusal rate | 3/200 (1.5%) |
| KL divergence | 0.0051 |
| Optimization trials | 35 |
Dense 27B model with strong performance: 1.5% refusals and KL divergence of just 0.0051. Extended optimization from 15 to 35 trials cut refusals from 7 to 3.
How It Works
Abliterix removes safety-refusal behavior while preserving model capabilities:
- Refusal direction extraction — 800 harmful + 800 benign prompts reveal per-layer refusal activation patterns
- Orthogonal projection — isolates the refusal signal by projecting out components aligned with normal responses, reducing refusals by 67% vs. raw abliteration
- LoRA-based abliteration — rank-1 modifications to attention and MLP weights, captured as lightweight adapters (not destructive edits)
- Bayesian optimization — Optuna TPE searches kernel shape, fractional direction index, and per-component strength across 35 trials to find the Pareto-optimal balance of low refusals and low KL divergence

7text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True, enable_thinking=False)
8inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
9outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512)
