AfriqueQwen3.5-4B-Instruct-v1

Post-trained version (v1) of McGill-NLP/AfriqueQwen3.5-4B.

Performance

For Flores, we use SSA-COMET (Li et al., 2025); for AfriMGSM, we detect the number inside the \boxed{} or the last number in the entire output; for multiple-choice questions, we use exact match.

Usage

Served with vLLM. The checkpoint declares Qwen3_5ForConditionalGeneration but carries no vision weights (426 language-model tensors plus a tied lm_head copy, 0 visual), so --language-model-only is required.

Hatua ya 1: Sandy hupata $15 kwa saa.
Hatua ya 2: Sandy alifanya kazi saa 10 Ijumaa.
Hatua ya 3: Jumla ya Mapato = $15/saa x saa 10
Hatua ya 4: $15 x 10 = $150

Sandy alipata $150 kwa kufanya kazi saa 10.
