Olmo-3-7B-Think — L6 dialect (No-Think)

A LoRA adapter trained to answer with no reasoning chain at all. This is the floor of the spectrum: it shows what the base retains when the chain is removed entirely, and is meant as a reference point, not a model to deploy.

Results

This adapter was not separately benchmarked. It exists as a training artefact for the ablation grid; the levels that carry reported numbers are the ones in the collection's core set.

Training data

GSM8K train. Targets carry the final answer only.

Training setup

Stage	supervised fine-tuning (distillation)
Engine	HuggingFace transformers + peft
LoRA	r=16, alpha=32, dropout=0.05
Epochs	3
Learning rate	2e-4, cosine, warmup 0.03
Batch	16 x 4 grad-accum = 64 effective
Max sequence	1024
Precision	bf16
Hardware	1x NVIDIA A100 80GB

Loss is on the completion only, with prompt lengths precomputed at load time rather than found by pattern search — the pattern-search collator silently masked nothing, which let the base model's tool-calling prior leak into the chains.

Usage

Answer directly.
Problem: {your problem}

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Think", torch_dtype="bfloat16", device_map="auto")
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(model, "ssurface/cot-dialect-olmo3-7b-think-sft-l6")
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Think")

Limitations

• Trained and evaluated on math word problems only.
• Accuracy falls with problem difficulty, fastest at the compressed levels.
• Single seed unless the repo name says otherwise; differences of a couple of points are within noise (95% half-width ~2.7 pp at n=1317, ~4.4 pp at n=500).
• L6 has no chain and is a reference point, not a model to deploy.
