Libraries

How to use Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

						}
					}
				]
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B
