Task

Given the ablation-free context of a research paper, the model proposes candidate ablation objectives, each expressed as a Target Module (the component to ablate) paired with a Research Question it is meant to answer.

Training data

SFT on train/sft_task1_45961.jsonl, then GRPO on train/RL_task1_30K.jsonl, from SlowGuess/abforge-data (derived from CC-licensed research papers). Evaluation uses the held-out AblationBench split (eval/ablationbench_200.jsonl) of the same dataset.

Related models (Task 1)

• SlowGuess/ABForge-Qwen3-8B-Task1 (this model)
• SlowGuess/ABForge-Qwen3-8B-Task1-SFT
• SlowGuess/ABForge-Qwen3-8B-Task1-RL

Evaluation

Reproduce AblationBench evaluation with the SlowGuess/Abforge_1 code:

bash
Copy code
git clone https://github.com/SlowGuess/Abforge_1 && cd Abforge_1
huggingface-cli download SlowGuess/abforge-data --repo-type dataset --local-dir data

export MODEL_PATH=SlowGuess/ABForge-Qwen3-8B-Task1

# 1. Generate predictions on AblationBench
python run_inference_local.py --task 1 \
  --input data/eval/ablationbench_200.jsonl \
  --output preds.jsonl \
  --model-path "$MODEL_PATH" --dtype bf16 --max-new-tokens 4096

# 2. Score against the fixed AblationBench rubric (Claude judge)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<your-key>
python scripts/eval_task1_claude.py --input preds.jsonl --output scored.jsonl
