Top-performance foundation models from Alibaba Cloud

About Qwen

Alibaba Cloud provides Tongyi Qianwen (Qwen) model series to the open-source community, including Qwen, the large language model (LLM), Qwen-VL, the large language vision model, and Qwen-Audio, the large language audio model. Qwen models are pre-trained on multilingual data covering various industries and domains, with Qwen-72B being trained on an astounding 3 trillion tokens of data. These models offer a wide range of capabilities, including multimodal understanding and generation, state-of-the-art image processing, and fully managed APIs to support your innovation in generative AI.

Qwen has been upgraded to version 1.5 (the Beta version of Qwen 2). Qwen 1.5 includes 6 model sizes: 0.5B, 1.8B, 4B, 7B, and 72B, all of which support the context length of 32768 tokens, with significant quality improvements and enhanced multilingual capabilities. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted to test Qwen 1.5's performance in language understanding, coding, reasoning, multilingual capabilities, human preference, agent, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), etc. See more details in this article.

  • Leading Performance in Multiple Dimensions

    Qwen outperforms other open-source baseline models of similar sizes on a series of benchmark datasets that evaluate natural language understanding, mathematical problem-solving, coding, etc.

  • Easy and Low-Cost Customization

    You can deploy Qwen models with a few clicks in PAI-EAS, and fine-tune them with your data stored on Alibaba Cloud, or external sources, to perform industry or enterprise-specific tasks.

  • Applications for Generative AI Era

    You can leverage Qwen APIs to build generative AI applications for a broad range of scenarios such as writing, image generation, audio analysis, etc. to improve work efficiency in your organization and transform customer experience.
