Reflection releases the open-source large model Beam: a 501B-parameter sparse MoE architecture that supports million-token contexts and multi-level inference control.

Reflection has released the open-source large language model Beam (501B parameters, with 23B effective activations per token), which employs a 256-expert sparse MoE architecture, supports 1M tokens of context, NVFP4/FP8 quantization, multi-level inference configuration, and on-premises deployment. All technical claims have not been independently verified, hardware requirements are high, and the community generally believes that individual users will find it difficult to afford.

Qwen2.5-Max: Exploring the Intelligence of Large-scale MoE Model

QWEN CHAT API DEMO DISCORD It is widely recognized that continuously scaling both data size and model size can lead to significant improvements in model intelligence. However, the research and industry community has limited experience in effectively scaling extremely large models, whether they are dense or Mixture-of-Expert (MoE) models. Many critical details regarding this scaling process were only disclosed with the recent release of DeepSeek V3. Concurrently, we are developing Qwen2.

Qwen2.5: A Party of Foundation Models!

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction In the past three months since Qwen2’s release, numerous developers have built new models on the Qwen2 language models, providing us with valuable feedback. During this period, we have focused on creating smarter and more knowledgeable language models. Today, we are excited to introduce the latest addition to the Qwen family: Qwen2.5. We are announcing what might be the largest opensource release in history!

Qwen2.5-LLM: Extending the boundary of LLMs

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction In this blog, we delve into the details of our latest Qwen2.5 series language models. We have developed a range of decoder-only dense models, with seven of them open-sourced, spanning from 0.5B to 72B parameters. Our research indicates a significant interest among users in models within the 10-30B range for production use, as well as 3B models for mobile applications. To meet these demands, we are open-sourcing Qwen2.

Qwen2.5-Math: The world's leading open-sourced mathematical LLMs

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DISCORD 🚨 Qwen2.5-Math mainly supports solving English and Chinese math problems through CoT and TIR. We do not recommend using this series of models for other tasks. Introduction A month ago, we released the first series of mathematical LLMs - Qwen2-Math - of our Qwen family. Today, we have upgraded it and open-sourced Qwen2.5-Math series, including base models Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B/7B/72B, instruction-tuned models Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B/7B/72B-Instruct, and mathematical reward model Qwen2.

Qwen1.5-MoE: Matching 7B Model Performance with 1/3 Activated Parameters

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction Since the surge in interest sparked by Mixtral, research on mixture-of-expert (MoE) models has gained significant momentum. Both researchers and practitioners are keenly interested in understanding how to effectively train such models and assessing their efficiency and effectiveness. Today, we introduce Qwen1.5-MoE-A2.7B, a small MoE model with only 2.7 billion activated parameters yet matching the performance of state-of-the-art 7B models like Mistral 7B and Qwen1.

Introducing Qwen1.5

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction In recent months, our focus has been on developing a “good” model while optimizing the developer experience. As we progress towards Qwen1.5, the next iteration in our Qwen series, this update arrives just before the Chinese New Year. With Qwen1.5, we are open-sourcing base and chat models across six sizes: 0.5B, 1.8B, 4B, 7B, 14B, 32B, 72B, and 110B, and also an MoE model (see blog for more information).
