EgoTools 8B v3.3
This repository stores intermediate checkpoints from full-parameter SFT of Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct on EgoTools v3.3.
Available checkpoints:
| Checkpoint | Location | Step | Epoch | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| checkpoint-300 | repository root | 300 / 907 | 0.3309 | First uploaded intermediate checkpoint. |
| checkpoint-600 | checkpoint-600/ |
600 / 907 | 0.6619 | Second uploaded intermediate checkpoint. |
The repository root currently contains the checkpoint-300 model files. checkpoint-600 is stored in the checkpoint-600/ subdirectory.
Training Setup
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Base model | Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct |
| Framework | ms-swift / Transformers |
| Tuning type | Full-parameter SFT |
| Trainable params | 8.19B / 8.77B, VLM LLM trainable; ViT and aligner frozen |
| GPUs | 8 x NVIDIA A100-SXM4-40GB |
| Precision | BF16 |
| DeepSpeed | ZeRO-3, no optimizer/parameter offload |
| Attention | FlashAttention |
| Per-device batch size | 2 |
| Gradient accumulation | 8 |
| Effective batch size | 128 samples |
| Epochs | 1 |
| Max steps | 907 |
| Learning rate | 2.3e-6 |
| LR scheduler | constant |
| Warmup | 0 |
| Weight decay | 0.1 |
| Max sequence length | 8192 |
| Video frame sampling | up to 64 frames |
| Video token budget | 128 |
| Image token budget | 1024 |
| Save interval | every 300 steps |
Important note: this run used a constant 2.3e-6 LR. Earlier V2 exploratory runs used 5e-6 with cosine decay and 3% warmup; these v3.3 checkpoints do not use that schedule.
