# Kev-0.8B
|
| 48 |
+
|
| 49 |
+
Kev-0.8B is a **decision model**: one document (the *state*) and a set of typed questions in, a probability distribution per question out, in one forward pass. No text generation. It is a LoRA adapter (r=16, 11.3M trainable parameters) plus a pointer head on `Qwen/Qwen3.5-0.8B-Base` (revision `dc7cdfe2`), serving TypeSafe's public `/v1/systemone` contract.
|
| 50 |
+
|
| 51 |
+
**The small member of the Kev family.** Same data and recipe as the 0.6B it replaces, on the Qwen3.5 base: in-distribution 0.825 (Kev-0.6B 0.801), out of domain 0.652 (0.620), and it is the first small Kev that learns any rule composition (held-out pairs 0.42 vs 0.08). Three seeds of the base recipe: transfer 0.622 / 0.634 / **0.643**; this checkpoint is seed 2 (selected on development accuracy) followed by a 9-minute **delta fine-tune** on 1,425 generated records (date-bearing policy cases with explicit day counts; evidence-free cases with uniform targets) mixed with 2,000 replayed training records — the same delta as Kev-4B and Kev-9B. Locked test against the pre-delta checkpoint: out of domain 0.668 → **0.684** (+2.2 pp [−0.8, +5.5]), Brier 0.473 → 0.460. Out of domain it is still a sub-1B model: use Kev-4B for accuracy; use this one where memory rules the 4B out, and measure on your own data.
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
- Hub: `jaredpalmer/kev-0.8b` (this repo; trial `night2-08b-du2/00-trial-0`). The pre-delta checkpoint is at revision `v7-base`.
|
| 54 |
+
- Demo: [huggingface.co/spaces/jaredpalmer/kev](https://huggingface.co/spaces/jaredpalmer/kev) runs Kev-4B and Kev-0.8B on ZeroGPU with the same encoder and API code as `kev.serve`.

Pre-delta: 0.827 / 0.668; Kev-0.6B on the same test items: 0.808 / 0.642.
|
| 76 |
+
|
| 77 |
+
## Known limits
|
| 78 |
+
|
| 79 |
+
- **Out of domain it is a sub-1B model.** Knowledge (MMLU 0.41) and paraphrase (PAWS 0.59) are near the untrained base; the same recipe reaches 0.79 at 4B and 0.81 at 9B on these items.
|
| 80 |
+
- **Slow on a Mac for its size.** The DeltaNet kernels have no MPS implementation; a five-question request takes ~0.33 s in bf16 on an M5 (Kev-0.6B: 0.12 s). On CUDA with `flash-linear-attention` it is fast.
|
| 81 |
+
- Requires `transformers >= 5.17` and `peft >= 0.21`.
|
| 82 |
+
- Ordinal hedging on date arithmetic (`deadline` 0.38): collapses to the middle level. `KEV_DATE_FACTS=1` (day counts appended to the state) helps the larger models more than this one.
|
| 83 |
+
- Confident-error rate out of domain is 9.9% for the raw logits; the built-in temperature (T = 2.41, fitted on the in-distribution development rows and stored in `head.pt`) brings it to 0.3% and ECE from 0.179 to 0.054 without changing any answer. `KEV_TEMPERATURE=1.0` gives the raw values. Probabilities are usable in-domain; treat them as advisory elsewhere.
|
| 84 |
+
|
| 85 |
+
## Training
|
| 86 |
+
|
| 87 |
+
Frozen suite `evals/v7/decision-v7`: 10,000 public records (1,000 per source), 896 policy minimal-pair records over nine template families, 1,680 records from 60 randomly generated rule structures in four rendering styles. Two epochs, LoRA r=16 α=32 on attention, MLP and DeltaNet projections; pointer head from scratch; cross-entropy on the option distribution; lr 1e-4 (OneCycle), batch 8, bf16 autocast with fp32 master weights; option permutation, none-of-the-above insertion, distractors, none minimal pairs on 25% of Choice records; ~20 min on one H100. Then the delta: `--init_from jaredpalmer/kev-0.8b@v7-base --data evals/night2/dates_unknowable.jsonl --replay 2000 --lr 4e-5 --epochs 1`, 9 minutes. No Jev outputs were used for training.
|
| 88 |
+
|
| 89 |
+
## Evaluation protocol
|
| 90 |
+
|
| 91 |
+
Development partitions select models; the locked test partition is read at most once per candidate. Every number carries suite hash, code hashes and git commit in `result.json`.
|
| 92 |
+
|
| 93 |
+
## Use
|
| 94 |
+
|
| 95 |
+
```bash
|
| 96 |
+
uv run --extra serve python -m kev.serve --run jaredpalmer/kev-0.8b --port 8008
|
| 97 |
+
```
|
| 98 |
+
|
| 99 |
+
Any TypeSafe-compatible client works: `TypeSafeClient(api_key="local", base_url="http://127.0.0.1:8008", model="kev-latest")`.
|
| 100 |
+
|
| 101 |
+
## License
|
| 102 |
+
|
| 103 |
+
Apache-2.0 for the adapter and head; the Qwen3.5 base is Apache-2.0; datasets carry their own licenses.
|
| 104 |
+
|
| 105 |
+
## GGUF
|
| 106 |
+
|
| 107 |
+
A merged, quantized GGUF for CPU inference is available through
|
| 108 |
+
[dohnuts.cpp](https://github.com/DreamBlooms/dohnuts.cpp), a native C++ port on
|
| 109 |
+
[llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp). It merges this LoRA into
|
| 110 |
+
`Qwen/Qwen3.5-0.8B-Base` and serves the same `POST /v1/systemone` wire format.
|
| 111 |
+
No GPU or Python runtime is needed.

| `kev-0.8b-q8_0.gguf` | Q8_0 merged language model | 775 MB |

|
| 118 |
+
|
| 119 |
+
The pointer head and `kev.json` are required alongside the GGUF. The conversion
|
| 120 |
+
merges the adapter in fp32 before quantizing; this matches the torch `merge`
|
| 121 |
+
path. It has not been benchmarked against the PyTorch reference.

Ask one state several questions (the same request shape as `kev.serve`):
|
| 135 |
+
|
| 136 |
+
```sh
|
| 137 |
+
curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1/systemone -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
|
| 138 |
+
-d '{"state":"My card was charged twice for the same purchase.",
|
| 139 |
+
"questions":{"department":{"type":"choice","instructions":"Which team should handle this?",
|
| 140 |
+
"criteria":{"billing":null,"technical support":null,"sales":null}},
|
| 141 |
+
"refund_requested":{"type":"noul","instructions":"Is a refund requested?"}}}'
|
| 142 |
+
```
|
| 143 |
+
|
| 144 |
+
The answer keeps the core fields (`type`, `choice`, `probabilities`, `noul`,
|
| 145 |
+
`confidence`) and adds this model's own confidence under `native`.
|
| 146 |
+
|

+
Rebuild from the upstream checkpoint with `scripts/build_kev_gguf.sh`, which
|
| 148 |
+
merges the LoRA into the base, exports `kev-head.f32` and `kev.json`, then
|
| 149 |
+
converts with `--no-mtp`. No retraining is involved.
