The mikelalda/qwen3.8-27b_euskara model is a 27 billion parameter Qwen3.8-27B base model fine-tuned by mikelalda, specifically optimized for Euskara (Basque) with Spanish and English as support languages. It leverages a hybrid gated delta rule attention mechanism and was trained using LoRA (PEFT) on approximately 74,000 examples from HiTZ corpora. This model excels in instruction-following conversations, multi-directional translation, and text-based tasks like summarization and answerability, making it suitable for applications requiring strong multilingual capabilities, particularly in Basque.

Model Overview

mikelalda/qwen3.8-27b_euskara is a fine-tuned version of the Qwen3.8-27B model, specifically adapted for Euskara (Basque), with Spanish and English as supporting languages. Developed by mikelalda, this 27 billion parameter model utilizes a hybrid gated delta rule attention mechanism, requiring flash-linear-attention for optimal performance. It was fine-tuned using LoRA (PEFT) with Unsloth and TRL's SFTTrainer.

Key Capabilities

  • Multilingual Instruction Following: Trained on conversational instructions in Basque, Spanish, and English.
  • Multi-directional Translation: Capable of translating between Basque, Spanish, and English, with specific focus on eu ↔ es and eu ↔ en pairs.
  • Text-based Tasks: Excels at summarization and determining answerability based on provided text.
  • Context Length: Supports a sequence length of 4096 tokens during training.

Training Details

The model was trained for one epoch on approximately 74,000 examples from HiTZ corpora, including:

  • HiTZ/magpie-en-eu-reasoning-instructions-qwen3: For conversational instructions.
  • HiTZ/ALIA_syntethic_MT_V2: For synthetic multi-directional translation data.
  • HiTZ/RAG_eu: Used for text-based summarization and answerability tasks. Note: This dataset was also an evaluation bank, leading to potential evaluation contamination if used for benchmarking.

Limitations and Considerations

  • Unevaluated Performance: No benchmarks have been run; performance claims are not yet validated.
  • Untrained Reasoning: The SFT was performed with enable_thinking=False, meaning the base model's reasoning mode was not reinforced and may have degraded.
  • Multimodal Path: While the base Qwen3.8-27B is multimodal, the vision path was not trained or verified in this fine-tuning.
  • Domain Bias: Training data from sources like Berria (press), official gazettes, and parliamentary acts results in a formal, institutional register focused on contemporary Basque politics.

Licensing

The licensing is complex due to mixed data sources. The base model is Apache-2.0, while some training datasets are CC-BY-SA-4.0. Following a conservative interpretation, the model is licensed under CC-BY-SA-4.0 to extend the share-alike condition of the training data. Users should review and adapt the license field as needed.
