Qwen3-30B-A3B-Base

Qwen3 Highlights

• Expanded Higher-Quality Pre-training Corpus: Qwen3 is pre-trained on 36 trillion tokens across 119 languages — tripling the language coverage of Qwen2.5 — with a much richer mix of high-quality data, including coding, STEM, reasoning, book, multilingual, and synthetic data.
• Training Techniques and Model Architecture: Qwen3 incorporates a series of training techiques and architectural refinements, including global-batch load balancing loss for MoE models and qk layernorm for all models, leading to improved stability and overall performance.
• Three-stage Pre-training: Stage 1 focuses on broad language modeling and general knowledge acquisition, Stage 2 improves reasoning skills like STEM, coding, and logical reasoning, and Stage 3 enhances long-context comprehension by extending training sequence lengths up to 32k tokens.
• Scaling Law Guided Hyperparameter Tuning: Through comprehensive scaling law studies across the three-stage pre-training pipeline, Qwen3 systematically tunes critical hyperparameters — such as learning rate scheduler and batch size — separately for dense and MoE models, resulting in better training dynamics and final performance across different model scales.
