How to Use QwQ-32B
Install Required Dependencies: Ensure you have the latest version of Hugging Face transformers library (version 4.37.0 or higher) installed to avoid compatibility issues
Import Required Libraries: Import AutoModelForCausalLM and AutoTokenizer from transformers library
Load Model and Tokenizer: Initialize the model using model_name='Qwen/QwQ-32B' with auto device mapping and dtype. Load the corresponding tokenizer
Prepare Input: Format your input as a list of message dictionaries with 'role' and 'content' keys. Use the chat template format
Generate Response: Use model.generate() with recommended parameters: Temperature=0.6, TopP=0.95, and TopK between 20-40 for optimal results
Process Output: Decode the generated tokens using tokenizer.batch_decode() to get the final response
Optional: Enable Long Context: For inputs over 32,768 tokens, enable YaRN by adding rope_scaling configuration to config.json
Follow Usage Guidelines: Ensure model starts with '<think>\n', exclude thinking content from conversation history, and use standardized prompts for specific tasks like math problems or multiple-choice questions
