33
-
34
- ## Quickstart
35
-
36
- The code of Qwen3 has been in the latest Hugging Face `transformers` and we advise you to use the latest version of `transformers`.
37
-
38
- With `transformers<4.51.0`, you will encounter the following error:
39
- ```
40
- KeyError: 'qwen3'
41
- ```
42
-
43
- The following contains a code snippet illustrating how to use the model generate content based on given inputs.
44
- ```python
45
- from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
46
-
47
- model_name = "Qwen/Qwen3-14B"
48
-
49
- # load the tokenizer and the model
50
- tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
51
- model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
52
- model_name,
53
- torch_dtype="auto",
54
- device_map="auto"
55
- )
56
-
57
- # prepare the model input
58
- prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
59
- messages = [
60
- {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
61
- ]
62
- text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
63
- messages,
64
- tokenize=False,
65
- add_generation_prompt=True,
66
- enable_thinking=True # Switches between thinking and non-thinking modes. Default is True.
67
- )
68
- model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
69
-
70
- # conduct text completion
71
- generated_ids = model.generate(
72
- **model_inputs,
73
- max_new_tokens=32768
74
- )
75
- output_ids = generated_ids[0][len(model_inputs.input_ids[0]):].tolist()
76
-
77
- # parsing thinking content
78
- try:
79
- # rindex finding 151668 (</think>)
80
- index = len(output_ids) - output_ids[::-1].index(151668)
81
- except ValueError:
82
- index = 0
83
-
84
- thinking_content = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[:index], skip_special_tokens=True).strip("\n")
85
- content = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[index:], skip_special_tokens=True).strip("\n")
86
-
87
- print("thinking content:", thinking_content)
88
- print("content:", content)
89
- ```
90
-
91
- For deployment, you can use `vllm>=0.8.5` or `sglang>=0.4.5.post2` to create an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint:
92
- - vLLM:
93
- ```shell
94
- vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-14B --enable-reasoning --reasoning-parser deepseek_r1
95
- ```
96
- - SGLang:
97
- ```shell
98
- python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path Qwen/Qwen3-14B --reasoning-parser deepseek-r1
99
- ```
100
-
101
- ## Switching Between Thinking and Non-Thinking Mode
102
-
103
- > [!TIP]
104
- > The `enable_thinking` switch is also available in APIs created by vLLM and SGLang.
105
- > Please refer to [our documentation](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/) for more details.
106
-
107
- ### `enable_thinking=True`
108
-
109
- By default, Qwen3 has thinking capabilities enabled, similar to QwQ-32B. This means the model will use its reasoning abilities to enhance the quality of generated responses. For example, when explicitly setting `enable_thinking=True` or leaving it as the default value in `tokenizer.apply_chat_template`, the model will engage its thinking mode.
110
-
111
- ```python
112
- text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
113
- messages,
114
- tokenize=False,
115
- add_generation_prompt=True,
116
- enable_thinking=True # True is the default value for enable_thinking
117
- )
118
- ```
119
-
120
- In this mode, the model will generate think content wrapped in a `<think>...</think>` block, followed by the final response.
121
-
122
- > [!NOTE]
123
- > For thinking mode, use `Temperature=0.6`, `TopP=0.95`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0` (the default setting in `generation_config.json`). **DO NOT use greedy decoding**, as it can lead to performance degradation and endless repetitions. For more detailed guidance, please refer to the [Best Practices](#best-practices) section.
124
-
125
-
126
- ### `enable_thinking=False`
127
-
128
- We provide a hard switch to strictly disable the model's thinking behavior, aligning its functionality with the previous Qwen2.5-Instruct models. This mode is particularly useful in scenarios where disabling thinking is essential for enhancing efficiency.
129
-
130
- ```python
131
- text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
132
- messages,
133
- tokenize=False,
134
- add_generation_prompt=True,
135
- enable_thinking=False # Setting enable_thinking=False disables thinking mode
136
- )
137
- ```
138
-
139
- In this mode, the model will not generate any think content and will not include a `<think>...</think>` block.
140
-
141
- > [!NOTE]
142
- > For non-thinking mode, we suggest using `Temperature=0.7`, `TopP=0.8`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`. For more detailed guidance, please refer to the [Best Practices](#best-practices) section.
143
-
144
- ### Advanced Usage: Switching Between Thinking and Non-Thinking Modes via User Input
145
-
146
- We provide a soft switch mechanism that allows users to dynamically control the model's behavior when `enable_thinking=True`. Specifically, you can add `/think` and `/no_think` to user prompts or system messages to switch the model's thinking mode from turn to turn. The model will follow the most recent instruction in multi-turn conversations.
147
-
148
- Here is an example of a multi-turn conversation:
149
-
150
- ```python
151
- from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
152
-
153
- class QwenChatbot:
154
- def __init__(self, model_name="Qwen/Qwen3-14B"):
155
- self.tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
156
- self.model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)
157
- self.history = []
158
-
159
- def generate_response(self, user_input):
160
- messages = self.history + [{"role": "user", "content": user_input}]
161
-
162
- text = self.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
163
- messages,
164
- tokenize=False,
165
- add_generation_prompt=True
166
- )
167
-
168
- inputs = self.tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt")
169
- response_ids = self.model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=32768)[0][len(inputs.input_ids[0]):].tolist()
170
- response = self.tokenizer.decode(response_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
171
-
172
- # Update history
173
- self.history.append({"role": "user", "content": user_input})
174
- self.history.append({"role": "assistant", "content": response})
175
-
176
- return response
177
-
178
- # Example Usage
179
- if __name__ == "__main__":
180
- chatbot = QwenChatbot()
181
-
182
- # First input (without /think or /no_think tags, thinking mode is enabled by default)
183
- user_input_1 = "How many r's in strawberries?"
184
- print(f"User: {user_input_1}")
185
- response_1 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_1)
186
- print(f"Bot: {response_1}")
187
- print("----------------------")
188
-
189
- # Second input with /no_think
190
- user_input_2 = "Then, how many r's in blueberries? /no_think"
191
- print(f"User: {user_input_2}")
192
- response_2 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_2)
193
- print(f"Bot: {response_2}")
194
- print("----------------------")
195
-
196
- # Third input with /think
197
- user_input_3 = "Really? /think"
198
- print(f"User: {user_input_3}")
199
- response_3 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_3)
200
- print(f"Bot: {response_3}")
201
- ```
202
-
203
- > **Note**
204
- > For API compatibility, when `enable_thinking=True`, regardless of whether the user uses `/think` or `/no_think`, the model will always output a block wrapped in `<think>...</think>`. However, the content inside this block may be empty if thinking is disabled.
205
- > When `enable_thinking=False`, the soft switches are not valid. Regardless of any `/think` or `/no_think` tags input by the user, the model will not generate think content and will not include a `<think>...</think>` block.
206

207
- ## Agentic Use
208
-
209
- Qwen3 excels in tool calling capabilities. We recommend using [Qwen-Agent](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen-Agent) to make the best use of agentic ability of Qwen3. Qwen-Agent encapsulates tool-calling templates and tool-calling parsers internally, greatly reducing coding complexity.
210
-
211
- To define the available tools, you can use the MCP configuration file, use the integrated tool of Qwen-Agent, or integrate other tools by yourself.
212
- ```python
213
- from qwen_agent.agents import Assistant
214
-
215
- # Define LLM
216
- llm_cfg = {
217
- 'model': 'Qwen3-14B',
218
-
219
- # Use the endpoint provided by Alibaba Model Studio:
220
- # 'model_type': 'qwen_dashscope',
221
- # 'api_key': os.getenv('DASHSCOPE_API_KEY'),
222
-
223
- # Use a custom endpoint compatible with OpenAI API:
224
- 'model_server': 'http://localhost:8000/v1', # api_base
225
- 'api_key': 'EMPTY',
226
-
227
- # Other parameters:
228
- # 'generate_cfg': {
229
- # # Add: When the response content is `<think>this is the thought</think>this is the answer;
230
- # # Do not add: When the response has been separated by reasoning_content and content.
231
- # 'thought_in_content': True,
232
- # },
233
- }
234
-
235
- # Define Tools
236
- tools = [
237
- {'mcpServers': { # You can specify the MCP configuration file
238
- 'time': {
239
- 'command': 'uvx',
240
- 'args': ['mcp-server-time', '--local-timezone=Asia/Shanghai']
241
- },
242
- "fetch": {
243
- "command": "uvx",
244
- "args": ["mcp-server-fetch"]
245
- }
246
- }
247
- },
248
- 'code_interpreter', # Built-in tools
249
- ]
250
-
251
- # Define Agent
252
- bot = Assistant(llm=llm_cfg, function_list=tools)
253
-
254
- # Streaming generation
255
- messages = [{'role': 'user', 'content': 'https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/ Introduce the latest developments of Qwen'}]
256
- for responses in bot.run(messages=messages):
257
- pass
258
- print(responses)
259
- ```
260
-
261
- ## Processing Long Texts
262
-
263
- Qwen3 natively supports context lengths of up to 32,768 tokens. For conversations where the total length (including both input and output) significantly exceeds this limit, we recommend using RoPE scaling techniques to handle long texts effectively. We have validated the model's performance on context lengths of up to 131,072 tokens using the [YaRN](https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.00071) method.
264
-
265
- YaRN is currently supported by several inference frameworks, e.g., `transformers` and `llama.cpp` for local use, `vllm` and `sglang` for deployment. In general, there are two approaches to enabling YaRN for supported frameworks:
266
-
267
- - Modifying the model files:
268
- In the `config.json` file, add the `rope_scaling` fields:
269
- ```json
270
- {
271
- ...,
272
- "rope_scaling": {
273
- "type": "yarn",
274
- "factor": 4.0,
275
- "original_max_position_embeddings": 32768
276
- }
277
- }
278
- ```
279
- For `llama.cpp`, you need to regenerate the GGUF file after the modification.
280
-
281
- - Passing command line arguments:
282
-
283
- For `vllm`, you can use
284
- ```shell
285
- vllm serve ... --rope-scaling '{"type":"yarn","factor":4.0,"original_max_position_embeddings":32768}' --max-model-len 131072
286
- ```
287
-
288
- For `sglang`, you can use
289
- ```shell
290
- python -m sglang.launch_server ... --json-model-override-args '{"rope_scaling":{"type":"yarn","factor":4.0,"original_max_position_embeddings":32768}}'
291
- ```
292
-
293
- For `llama-server` from `llama.cpp`, you can use
294
- ```shell
295
- llama-server ... --rope-scaling yarn --rope-scale 4 --yarn-orig-ctx 32768
296
- ```
297
-
298
- > [!IMPORTANT]
299
- > If you encounter the following warning
300
- > ```
301
- > Unrecognized keys in `rope_scaling` for 'rope_type'='yarn': {'original_max_position_embeddings'}
302
- > ```
303
- > please upgrade `transformers>=4.51.0`.
304
-
305
- > [!NOTE]
306
- > All the notable open-source frameworks implement static YaRN, which means the scaling factor remains constant regardless of input length, **potentially impacting performance on shorter texts.**
307
- > We advise adding the `rope_scaling` configuration only when processing long contexts is required.
308
- > It is also recommended to modify the `factor` as needed. For example, if the typical context length for your application is 65,536 tokens, it would be better to set `factor` as 2.0.
309
-
310
- > [!NOTE]
311
- > The default `max_position_embeddings` in `config.json` is set to 40,960. This allocation includes reserving 32,768 tokens for outputs and 8,192 tokens for typical prompts, which is sufficient for most scenarios involving short text processing. If the average context length does not exceed 32,768 tokens, we do not recommend enabling YaRN in this scenario, as it may potentially degrade model performance.
312
-
313
- > [!TIP]
314
- > The endpoint provided by Alibaba Model Studio supports dynamic YaRN by default and no extra configuration is needed.
315
-
316
- ## Best Practices
317
-
318
- To achieve optimal performance, we recommend the following settings:
319
-
320
- 1. **Sampling Parameters**:
321
- - For thinking mode (`enable_thinking=True`), use `Temperature=0.6`, `TopP=0.95`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`. **DO NOT use greedy decoding**, as it can lead to performance degradation and endless repetitions.
322
- - For non-thinking mode (`enable_thinking=False`), we suggest using `Temperature=0.7`, `TopP=0.8`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`.
323
- - For supported frameworks, you can adjust the `presence_penalty` parameter between 0 and 2 to reduce endless repetitions. However, using a higher value may occasionally result in language mixing and a slight decrease in model performance.
324
-
325
- 2. **Adequate Output Length**: We recommend using an output length of 32,768 tokens for most queries. For benchmarking on highly complex problems, such as those found in math and programming competitions, we suggest setting the max output length to 38,912 tokens. This provides the model with sufficient space to generate detailed and comprehensive responses, thereby enhancing its overall performance.
326
-
327
- 3. **Standardize Output Format**: We recommend using prompts to standardize model outputs when benchmarking.
328
- - **Math Problems**: Include "Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \boxed{}." in the prompt.
329
- - **Multiple-Choice Questions**: Add the following JSON structure to the prompt to standardize responses: "Please show your choice in the `answer` field with only the choice letter, e.g., `"answer": "C"`."
330
-
331
- 4. **No Thinking Content in History**: In multi-turn conversations, the historical model output should only include the final output part and does not need to include the thinking content. It is implemented in the provided chat template in Jinja2. However, for frameworks that do not directly use the Jinja2 chat template, it is up to the developers to ensure that the best practice is followed.

+ For more details, including benchmark evaluation, hardware requirements, and inference performance, please refer to our [blog](https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwen3/), [GitHub](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen3), and [Documentation](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
151
+
152
+ ## Quickstart
153
+
154
+ The code of Qwen3 has been in the latest Hugging Face `transformers` and we advise you to use the latest version of `transformers`.
155
+
156
+ With `transformers<4.51.0`, you will encounter the following error:
157
+ ```
158
+ KeyError: 'qwen3'
159
+ ```
160
+
161
+ The following contains a code snippet illustrating how to use the model generate content based on given inputs.
162
+ ```python
163
+ from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
164
+
165
+ model_name = "Qwen/Qwen3-14B"
166
+
167
+ # load the tokenizer and the model
168
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
169
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
170
+ model_name,
171
+ torch_dtype="auto",
172
+ device_map="auto"
173
+ )
174
+
175
+ # prepare the model input
176
+ prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
177
+ messages = [
178
+ {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
179
+ ]
180
+ text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
181
+ messages,
182
+ tokenize=False,
183
+ add_generation_prompt=True,
184
+ enable_thinking=True # Switches between thinking and non-thinking modes. Default is True.
185
+ )
186
+ model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
187
+
188
+ # conduct text completion
189
+ generated_ids = model.generate(
190
+ **model_inputs,
191
+ max_new_tokens=32768
192
+ )
193
+ output_ids = generated_ids[0][len(model_inputs.input_ids[0]):].tolist()
194
+
195
+ # parsing thinking content
196
+ try:
197
+ # rindex finding 151668 (</think>)
198
+ index = len(output_ids) - output_ids[::-1].index(151668)
199
+ except ValueError:
200
+ index = 0
201
+
202
+ thinking_content = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[:index], skip_special_tokens=True).strip("\n")
203
+ content = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[index:], skip_special_tokens=True).strip("\n")
204
+
205
+ print("thinking content:", thinking_content)
206
+ print("content:", content)
207
+ ```
208
+
209
+ For deployment, you can use `vllm>=0.8.5` or `sglang>=0.4.5.post2` to create an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint:
210
+ - vLLM:
211
+ ```shell
212
+ vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-14B --enable-reasoning --reasoning-parser deepseek_r1
213
+ ```
214
+ - SGLang:
215
+ ```shell
216
+ python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path Qwen/Qwen3-14B --reasoning-parser deepseek-r1
217
+ ```
218
+
219
+ ## Switching Between Thinking and Non-Thinking Mode
220
+
221
+ > [!TIP]
222
+ > The `enable_thinking` switch is also available in APIs created by vLLM and SGLang.
223
+ > Please refer to [our documentation](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/) for more details.
224
+
225
+ ### `enable_thinking=True`
226
+
227
+ By default, Qwen3 has thinking capabilities enabled, similar to QwQ-32B. This means the model will use its reasoning abilities to enhance the quality of generated responses. For example, when explicitly setting `enable_thinking=True` or leaving it as the default value in `tokenizer.apply_chat_template`, the model will engage its thinking mode.
228
+
229
+ ```python
230
+ text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
231
+ messages,
232
+ tokenize=False,
233
+ add_generation_prompt=True,
234
+ enable_thinking=True # True is the default value for enable_thinking
235
+ )
236
+ ```
237
+
238
+ In this mode, the model will generate think content wrapped in a `<think>...</think>` block, followed by the final response.
239
+
240
+ > [!NOTE]
241
+ > For thinking mode, use `Temperature=0.6`, `TopP=0.95`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0` (the default setting in `generation_config.json`). **DO NOT use greedy decoding**, as it can lead to performance degradation and endless repetitions. For more detailed guidance, please refer to the [Best Practices](#best-practices) section.
242
+
243
+
244
+ ### `enable_thinking=False`
245
+
246
+ We provide a hard switch to strictly disable the model's thinking behavior, aligning its functionality with the previous Qwen2.5-Instruct models. This mode is particularly useful in scenarios where disabling thinking is essential for enhancing efficiency.
247
+
248
+ ```python
249
+ text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
250
+ messages,
251
+ tokenize=False,
252
+ add_generation_prompt=True,
253
+ enable_thinking=False # Setting enable_thinking=False disables thinking mode
254
+ )
255
+ ```
256
+
257
+ In this mode, the model will not generate any think content and will not include a `<think>...</think>` block.
258
+
259
+ > [!NOTE]
260
+ > For non-thinking mode, we suggest using `Temperature=0.7`, `TopP=0.8`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`. For more detailed guidance, please refer to the [Best Practices](#best-practices) section.
261
+
262
+ ### Advanced Usage: Switching Between Thinking and Non-Thinking Modes via User Input
263
+
264
+ We provide a soft switch mechanism that allows users to dynamically control the model's behavior when `enable_thinking=True`. Specifically, you can add `/think` and `/no_think` to user prompts or system messages to switch the model's thinking mode from turn to turn. The model will follow the most recent instruction in multi-turn conversations.
265
+
266
+ Here is an example of a multi-turn conversation:
267
+
268
+ ```python
269
+ from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
270
+
271
+ class QwenChatbot:
272
+ def __init__(self, model_name="Qwen/Qwen3-14B"):
273
+ self.tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
274
+ self.model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)
275
+ self.history = []
276
+
277
+ def generate_response(self, user_input):
278
+ messages = self.history + [{"role": "user", "content": user_input}]
279
+
280
+ text = self.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
281
+ messages,
282
+ tokenize=False,
283
+ add_generation_prompt=True
284
+ )
285
+
286
+ inputs = self.tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt")
287
+ response_ids = self.model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=32768)[0][len(inputs.input_ids[0]):].tolist()
288
+ response = self.tokenizer.decode(response_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
289
+
290
+ # Update history
291
+ self.history.append({"role": "user", "content": user_input})
292
+ self.history.append({"role": "assistant", "content": response})
293
+
294
+ return response
295
+
296
+ # Example Usage
297
+ if __name__ == "__main__":
298
+ chatbot = QwenChatbot()
299
+
300
+ # First input (without /think or /no_think tags, thinking mode is enabled by default)
301
+ user_input_1 = "How many r's in strawberries?"
302
+ print(f"User: {user_input_1}")
303
+ response_1 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_1)
304
+ print(f"Bot: {response_1}")
305
+ print("----------------------")
306
+
307
+ # Second input with /no_think
308
+ user_input_2 = "Then, how many r's in blueberries? /no_think"
309
+ print(f"User: {user_input_2}")
310
+ response_2 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_2)
311
+ print(f"Bot: {response_2}")
312
+ print("----------------------")
313
+
314
+ # Third input with /think
315
+ user_input_3 = "Really? /think"
316
+ print(f"User: {user_input_3}")
317
+ response_3 = chatbot.generate_response(user_input_3)
318
+ print(f"Bot: {response_3}")
319
+ ```
320
+
321
+ > **Note**
322
+ > For API compatibility, when `enable_thinking=True`, regardless of whether the user uses `/think` or `/no_think`, the model will always output a block wrapped in `<think>...</think>`. However, the content inside this block may be empty if thinking is disabled.
323
+ > When `enable_thinking=False`, the soft switches are not valid. Regardless of any `/think` or `/no_think` tags input by the user, the model will not generate think content and will not include a `<think>...</think>` block.
324
+
325
+ ## Agentic Use
326
+
327
+ Qwen3 excels in tool calling capabilities. We recommend using [Qwen-Agent](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen-Agent) to make the best use of agentic ability of Qwen3. Qwen-Agent encapsulates tool-calling templates and tool-calling parsers internally, greatly reducing coding complexity.
328
+
329
+ To define the available tools, you can use the MCP configuration file, use the integrated tool of Qwen-Agent, or integrate other tools by yourself.
330
+ ```python
331
+ from qwen_agent.agents import Assistant
332
+
333
+ # Define LLM
334
+ llm_cfg = {
335
+ 'model': 'Qwen3-14B',
336
+
337
+ # Use the endpoint provided by Alibaba Model Studio:
338
+ # 'model_type': 'qwen_dashscope',
339
+ # 'api_key': os.getenv('DASHSCOPE_API_KEY'),
340
+
341
+ # Use a custom endpoint compatible with OpenAI API:
342
+ 'model_server': 'http://localhost:8000/v1', # api_base
343
+ 'api_key': 'EMPTY',
344
+
345
+ # Other parameters:
346
+ # 'generate_cfg': {
347
+ # # Add: When the response content is `<think>this is the thought</think>this is the answer;
348
+ # # Do not add: When the response has been separated by reasoning_content and content.
349
+ # 'thought_in_content': True,
350
+ # },
351
+ }
352
+
353
+ # Define Tools
354
+ tools = [
355
+ {'mcpServers': { # You can specify the MCP configuration file
356
+ 'time': {
357
+ 'command': 'uvx',
358
+ 'args': ['mcp-server-time', '--local-timezone=Asia/Shanghai']
359
+ },
360
+ "fetch": {
361
+ "command": "uvx",
362
+ "args": ["mcp-server-fetch"]
363
+ }
364
+ }
365
+ },
366
+ 'code_interpreter', # Built-in tools
367
+ ]
368
+
369
+ # Define Agent
370
+ bot = Assistant(llm=llm_cfg, function_list=tools)
371
+
372
+ # Streaming generation
373
+ messages = [{'role': 'user', 'content': 'https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/ Introduce the latest developments of Qwen'}]
374
+ for responses in bot.run(messages=messages):
375
+ pass
376
+ print(responses)
377
+ ```
378
+
379
+ ## Processing Long Texts
380
+
381
+ Qwen3 natively supports context lengths of up to 32,768 tokens. For conversations where the total length (including both input and output) significantly exceeds this limit, we recommend using RoPE scaling techniques to handle long texts effectively. We have validated the model's performance on context lengths of up to 131,072 tokens using the [YaRN](https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.00071) method.
382
+
383
+ YaRN is currently supported by several inference frameworks, e.g., `transformers` and `llama.cpp` for local use, `vllm` and `sglang` for deployment. In general, there are two approaches to enabling YaRN for supported frameworks:
384
+
385
+ - Modifying the model files:
386
+ In the `config.json` file, add the `rope_scaling` fields:
387
+ ```json
388
+ {
389
+ ...,
390
+ "rope_scaling": {
391
+ "type": "yarn",
392
+ "factor": 4.0,
393
+ "original_max_position_embeddings": 32768
394
+ }
395
+ }
396
+ ```
397
+ For `llama.cpp`, you need to regenerate the GGUF file after the modification.
398
+
399
+ - Passing command line arguments:
400
+
401
+ For `vllm`, you can use
402
+ ```shell
403
+ vllm serve ... --rope-scaling '{"type":"yarn","factor":4.0,"original_max_position_embeddings":32768}' --max-model-len 131072
404
+ ```
405
+
406
+ For `sglang`, you can use
407
+ ```shell
408
+ python -m sglang.launch_server ... --json-model-override-args '{"rope_scaling":{"type":"yarn","factor":4.0,"original_max_position_embeddings":32768}}'
409
+ ```
410
+
411
+ For `llama-server` from `llama.cpp`, you can use
412
+ ```shell
413
+ llama-server ... --rope-scaling yarn --rope-scale 4 --yarn-orig-ctx 32768
414
+ ```
415
+
416
+ > [!IMPORTANT]
417
+ > If you encounter the following warning
418
+ > ```
419
+ > Unrecognized keys in `rope_scaling` for 'rope_type'='yarn': {'original_max_position_embeddings'}
420
+ > ```
421
+ > please upgrade `transformers>=4.51.0`.
422
+
423
+ > [!NOTE]
424
+ > All the notable open-source frameworks implement static YaRN, which means the scaling factor remains constant regardless of input length, **potentially impacting performance on shorter texts.**
425
+ > We advise adding the `rope_scaling` configuration only when processing long contexts is required.
426
+ > It is also recommended to modify the `factor` as needed. For example, if the typical context length for your application is 65,536 tokens, it would be better to set `factor` as 2.0.
427
+
428
+ > [!NOTE]
429
+ > The default `max_position_embeddings` in `config.json` is set to 40,960. This allocation includes reserving 32,768 tokens for outputs and 8,192 tokens for typical prompts, which is sufficient for most scenarios involving short text processing. If the average context length does not exceed 32,768 tokens, we do not recommend enabling YaRN in this scenario, as it may potentially degrade model performance.
430
+
431
+ > [!TIP]
432
+ > The endpoint provided by Alibaba Model Studio supports dynamic YaRN by default and no extra configuration is needed.
433
+
434
+ ## Best Practices
435
+
436
+ To achieve optimal performance, we recommend the following settings:
437
+
438
+ 1. **Sampling Parameters**:
439
+ - For thinking mode (`enable_thinking=True`), use `Temperature=0.6`, `TopP=0.95`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`. **DO NOT use greedy decoding**, as it can lead to performance degradation and endless repetitions.
440
+ - For non-thinking mode (`enable_thinking=False`), we suggest using `Temperature=0.7`, `TopP=0.8`, `TopK=20`, and `MinP=0`.
441
+ - For supported frameworks, you can adjust the `presence_penalty` parameter between 0 and 2 to reduce endless repetitions. However, using a higher value may occasionally result in language mixing and a slight decrease in model performance.
442
+
443
+ 2. **Adequate Output Length**: We recommend using an output length of 32,768 tokens for most queries. For benchmarking on highly complex problems, such as those found in math and programming competitions, we suggest setting the max output length to 38,912 tokens. This provides the model with sufficient space to generate detailed and comprehensive responses, thereby enhancing its overall performance.
444
+
445
+ 3. **Standardize Output Format**: We recommend using prompts to standardize model outputs when benchmarking.
446
+ - **Math Problems**: Include "Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \boxed{}." in the prompt.
447
+ - **Multiple-Choice Questions**: Add the following JSON structure to the prompt to standardize responses: "Please show your choice in the `answer` field with only the choice letter, e.g., `"answer": "C"`."
448
+
449
+ 4. **No Thinking Content in History**: In multi-turn conversations, the historical model output should only include the final output part and does not need to include the thinking content. It is implemented in the provided chat template in Jinja2. However, for frameworks that do not directly use the Jinja2 chat template, it is up to the developers to ensure that the best practice is followed.
