        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("VLR-CVC/CVC-Qwen3.5-2B-SFT")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("VLR-CVC/CVC-Qwen3.5-2B-SFT", device_map="auto")

            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

CVC-Qwen3.5-2B-Instruct

Vision-language instruct model finetuned from Qwen/Qwen3.5-2B-Base. For more info see the 35B-A3B model card.

Dense, 2B parameters: 24 decoder layers plus a 24-layer vision encoder. Weights are bf16.

Training

Two supervised finetuning stages, both at sequence length 16384 on 64 nodes of JUPITER (4x GH200 per node):

Instruct SFT — one pass over the LLaVA-OneVision-1.5-Instruct and Nemotron-VLM-V2 blend, 1139 steps / 16.7B tokens.
Decay anneal — a further 156 steps / 2.3B tokens over the same sources reweighted towards document and OCR data, with the learning rate decayed to zero.

Learning rate 1e-5 for the decoder and projector, 1e-6 for the vision encoder, 100 warmup steps. Images are capped at 1024px on the long side.

Notes

Uses the Qwen3.5 chat template. Unlike the upstream instruct template, this one renders <think> blocks on every assistant turn rather than only the last, matching how the model was trained.
eos_token is <|im_end|>, and generation_config.json stops on both <|im_end|> (248046) and <|endoftext|> (248044).
