MiniMax-M2.5_dq4-abliterated

This model was created using the mlx-abliteration toolkit, which is based on the FiditeNemini/mlx-abliteration project.

Base Model

Original model: ./models/MiniMax-M2.5_dq4 (local path)

What is Abliteration?

Abliteration is a mechanistic interpretability technique that identifies and orthogonalizes the "refusal direction" in a model's activation space, surgically removing refusal behavior without full fine-tuning.

Abliteration Parameters

Parameter	Value
Base model	./models/MiniMax-M2.5_dq4
Ablation method	projection
Refusal vector policy	per-layer
Refusal direction method	projected
Ablation strength	2.0
Probed layers	all
PCA components (ablate-k)	1
Attention only	True
Timestamp	2026-03-02T20:40:28 UTC

This model uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture. Abliteration targets only the attention projection weights (q/k/v/o_proj) to preserve expert routing quality.
