# Qwen3-8B-Base ## Qwen3 Highlights Qwen3 is the latest generation of large language models in Qwen series, offering a comprehensive suite of dense and mixture-of-experts (MoE) models. Building upon extensive advancements in training data, model architecture, and optimization techniques, Qwen3 delivers the following key improvements over the previously released Qwen2.5: - **Expanded Higher-Quality Pre-training Corpus:** Qwen3 is pre-trained on 36 trillion tokens across 119 languages — tripling the language coverage of Qwen2.5 — with a much richer mix of high-quality data, including coding, STEM, reasoning, book, multilingual, and synthetic data. - **Training Techniques and Model Architecture:** Qwen3 incorporates a series of training techiques and architectural refinements, including global-batch load balancing loss for MoE models and qk layernorm for all models, leading to improved stability and overall performance. - **Three-stage Pre-training:** Stage 1 focuses on broad language modeling and general knowledge acquisition, Stage 2 improves reasoning skills like STEM, coding, and logical reasoning, and Stage 3 enhances long-context comprehension by extending training sequence lengths up to 32k tokens. - **Scaling Law Guided Hyperparameter Tuning:** Through comprehensive scaling law studies across the three-stage pre-training pipeline, Qwen3 systematically tunes critical hyperparameters — such as learning rate scheduler and batch size — separately for dense and MoE models, resulting in better training dynamics and final performance across different model scales. ## Model Overview **Qwen3-8B-Base** has the following features: - Type: Causal Language Models - Training Stage: Pretraining - Number of Parameters: 8.2B - Number of Paramaters (Non-Embedding): 6.95B - Number of Layers: 36 - Number of Attention Heads (GQA): 32 for Q and 8 for KV - Context Length: 32,768 For more details, including benchmark evaluation, hardware requirements, and inference performance, please refer to our [blog](https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwen3/), [GitHub](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen3), and [Documentation](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). ## Requirements The code of Qwen3 has been in the latest Hugging Face `transformers` and we advise you to use the latest version of `transformers`. With `transformers<4.51.0`, you will encounter the following error: ``` KeyError: 'qwen3' ``` ## Evaluation & Performance Detailed evaluation results are reported in this [📑 blog](https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwen3/). ### Citation If you find our work helpful, feel free to give us a cite. ``` @misc{qwen3technicalreport, title={Qwen3 Technical Report}, author={Qwen Team}, year={2025}, eprint={2505.09388}, archivePrefix={arXiv}, primaryClass={cs.CL}, url={https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.09388}, } ```
