sdft-search-lora-iter20

A Qwen3-8B model fine-tuned for retrieval-augmented (search-R1 style) multi-turn reasoning. This is a LoRA adapter merged back into the full model and exported as standard HuggingFace safetensors.

Training

  • Base / init: Qwen3-8B-Base after a supervised fine-tuning (SDFT) cold-start (oracle-mix SFT), then RL.
  • Method: Search-R1 style RL (GRPO/GSPO) in the slime framework, with a co-located GPU-faiss retriever over a Wikipedia-2018 index.
  • Parameter-efficient: LoRA, rank r=16, alpha=32 (scaling alpha/r = 2.0), applied to linear_qkv, linear_proj, linear_fc1, linear_fc2 in every layer.
  • Checkpoint: RL iteration 20. The adapter (all 144 lora_B factors nonzero) is merged into the base weights: W ← W + (alpha/r) · B @ A per target module.

Note: This is an early checkpoint (20 RL steps). The merged delta over the SDFT base is small (relative Frobenius norm ~1e-2 per projection matrix), so the model behaves very close to the SDFT base with an initial RL update applied.

Architecture

Qwen3, 36 layers, hidden 4096, 32 attn heads / 8 KV heads (GQA), intermediate 12288, vocab 151936, bf16. Identical arch to Qwen3-8B-Base.
