Instruction Residuals

This repository contains instruction residuals (delta weights) computed as the parameter-wise difference between Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B and Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B-Base.

Apply these residuals to the base model to reconstruct the instruction-tuned weights without retraining.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from residuals import Residuals

base = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B-Base")
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B-Base")

res = Residuals.from_pretrained("residuals/qwen3-0.6b")
res.apply(base, base_tokenizer=tok)

Files

• model.safetensors: Serialized residual tensors (safetensors format).
• (optional) model.safetensors.index.json + shard files model-00001-of-000N.safetensors, ... for multi-part weights.
• config.json: Residuals metadata and provenance.
• tokenizer files: Saved tokenizer for compatibility.

About this format

These are additive residuals (task vectors). Applying them to the base model's parameters reconstructs the instruction-tuned model.
