unsloth/Qwen3-4B StructEval-T Optimized (v5 + Hard Mix)

This repository provides a DoRA adapter fine-tuned from unsloth/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 using QLoRA (4-bit, Unsloth).

This repository contains DoRA adapter weights only. The base model must be loaded separately.

Training Objective

This adapter is trained to improve structured output accuracy (JSON / YAML / XML / TOML / CSV).

Loss is applied only to the final assistant output, while intermediate reasoning (Chain-of-Thought) is masked.

Model Selection

• Base Model: unsloth/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507
• Reason: This model was selected for its balance between reasoning capabilities and efficiency on T4 GPUs. The Unsloth version allows for a larger MAX_SEQ_LEN (1024), which is crucial for processing long structural requirements in the StructEval-T benchmark.

Dataset Strategy (Strategy B) To achieve both high formatting accuracy and complex reasoning, a hybrid dataset approach was used:

1. u-10bei/structured_data_with_cot_dataset_512_v5: Used as the "Base of Excellence" for its clean, high-quality instruction-following samples.
2. daichira/structured-hard-sft-4k: Integrated to improve robustness against deeply nested structures and long-context constraints.

• Mixing Ratio: 7:3 (v5:Hard) to maintain stability while enhancing peak reasoning performance.

Preprocessing & Data Engineering Unlike simple fine-tuning, the following programmatic enhancements were applied to the training data:

• Marker Unification: Every assistant response was standardized to follow the Reasoning... Output: {Structured Data} pattern to maximize the effectiveness of CoT masking.
• Format Normalization: Applied regex-based cleaning to ensure date formats (ISO-8601) and numerical types are strictly consistent with the StructEval-T evaluation criteria.
• Column Pruning: Stripped unnecessary metadata columns to prevent training noise and focus purely on conversational instruction-following.

Hyperparameters & Optimization

• Method: DoRA (Weight-Decomposed Low-Rank Adaptation) was used instead of standard LoRA to allow for higher-capacity learning of complex syntax (TOML/XML).
• Rank/Alpha: r=64 / alpha=128 to capture the intricate patterns of structured data.
• Learning Rate: 5e-5, optimized for 1 epoch to prevent overfitting while ensuring the model adopts the new 'Output:' marker.

Training Configuration

• Base model: unsloth/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507
• Method: QLoRA (4-bit)
• Max sequence length: 1024
• Epochs: 1
• Learning rate: 5e-05
• DoRA: r=32, alpha=64
