Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct
Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct is a flagship 72.7-billion parameter, open-weight model engineered for high-stakes AI production, advanced reasoning, and complex conversational tasks. Optimised with an 80-layer architecture using Grouped Query Attention (GQA), it delivers exceptional performance in coding, mathematics, and structured data tasks like JSON and table processing.
Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct

Summary
Introduction
Qwen2.5 is the latest series of Qwen large language models. For Qwen2.5, the author release a number of base language models and instruction-tuned language models ranging from 0.5 to 72 billion parameters. Qwen2.5 brings the following improvements upon Qwen2:
- Significantly more knowledge and has greatly improved capabilities in coding and mathematics, thanks to our specialized expert models in these domains.
- Significant improvements in instruction following, generating long texts (over 8K tokens), understanding structured data (e.g, tables), and generating structured outputs especially JSON. More resilient to the diversity of system prompts, enhancing role-play implementation and condition-setting for chatbots.
- Long-context Support up to 128K tokens and can generate up to 8K tokens.
- Multilingual support for over 29 languages, including Chinese, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, Arabic, and more.
This repo contains the instruction-tuned 72B Qwen2.5 model, which has the following features:
- Type: Causal Language Models
- Training Stage: Pretraining & Post-training
- Architecture: transformers with RoPE, SwiGLU, RMSNorm, and Attention QKV bias
- Number of Parameters: 72.7B
- Number of Paramaters (Non-Embedding): 70.0B
- Number of Layers: 80
- Number of Attention Heads (GQA): 64 for Q and 8 for KV
- Context Length: Full 131,072 tokens and generation 8192 tokens
Parameters
Inputs
prompt- (text): User-provided input can be a question, a request, or the context to be addressed. The system uses the prompt to analyze, infer, and generate a corresponding response.
Output
output- (text):The content generated after the token is the final answer that the model returns to the user.
Usage for developers
Please find below the details to track the information and access the code for processing the model on our platform.
Requirements
pip install -r requirements.txt
Code based on AIOZ structure
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
...
def do_ai_task(
prompt: Union[str, Path],
model_storage_directory: Union[str, Path],
device: Literal["cpu", "cuda", "gpu"] = "cpu",
*args, **kwargs) -> Any:
"""Define AI task: load model, pre-process, post-process, etc ..."""
# Define AI task workflow. Below is an example
model_name = os.path.join(model_storage_directory, "Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
model_name,
torch_dtype="auto",
device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
...
text_output = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
return text_output
