Status
Not evaluated. No GSM8K accuracy was measured for this checkpoint, so there is no evidence
here that it improves over the base model. Benchmark it before relying on it.
Usage
Loads as a plain Qwen2ForCausalLM — the run used thinking_use_mlp: false, so the checkpoint
contains no modules beyond the base architecture.
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
model_id = "robinzixuan/LT-Tuning-Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct-GSM8K"
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, dtype="bfloat16", device_map="auto")
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Natalia sold clips to 48 friends in April, "
"and then she sold half as many clips in May. "
"How many clips did she sell altogether?"}]
inputs = tok.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
print(tok.decode(model.generate(inputs, max_new_tokens=512)[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
Training
Three stages of 1 epoch each, run back-to-back with the optimizer reset between stages:
Table with columns: Stage, Name, Mode, Thinking insertion prob| Stage | Name | Mode | Thinking insertion prob |
|---|
| 0 | stage0-cot | common | 0.0 |
| 1 | stage1-hidden-state | hidden_state | 0.85 |
| 2 | stage2-soft-fusion | soft_fusion | 0.95 |
Between stages the dataset is regenerated: every training example is scored with a forward pass
(thinking_strategy: confidence) to pick where the <thinking> tokens go.

Loss
Final stage2-soft-fusion loss settled around 0.36 (grad_norm ~1.7, stable throughout).
The reported train_loss of 1.297 is the mean across all three stages and is not a meaningful
convergence figure — the stages optimize different objectives, so their losses are not comparable
to each other.
Limitations
- Trained only on GSM8K grade-school word problems; nothing here transfers to other domains by default.
- No held-out evaluation was run, on GSM8K or anything else.
- Inherits the limitations and license terms of the
Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct base model.
