The audited 7-4 entrypoints are trainer/train_pretrain_vlm_muon.py, trainer/train_sft_vlm_muon.py, and eval_vlm.py. The historical outputs below are bound into the two canonical evidence packages; they do not prove byte identity of the historical checkouts or checkpoints.

Experiment 7-4 canonical retained-training report

The canonical checkpoint-free report is validation/runs/exp7-4-training-report-20260731-v1/report.md. It extracts all 64 historical captions from the eight configurations below, binds the same eight evaluation images by SHA-256, and retains eight real image-aware, configuration-blind ARK judge requests and responses with unique IDs, usage, and latency. The raw request embeds the exact public image bytes, so the validator proves that the judge actually received the pinned image.

The independent result is negative relative to the prose hypothesis: original SFT ranked highest at 1.9062/5, while the matched SFT-base QK-Norm+Muon comparison was lower by 0.1876 after projection-only training and by 0.6250 after full VLM SFT. QK-Norm and Muon change together, so the report does not make a Muon-only causal claim.

Historical source revisions, data hashes, base/VLM checkpoint hashes, RNG state, and stepwise logs were not retained. reproduction_contract.json therefore labels current immutable pre-QK-Norm and QK-Norm+Muon revisions, script-compatible dataset LFS objects, CLIP weights, images, and commands as a future reproduction contract, not historical provenance. Training checkpoints intentionally remain local and are not an acceptance artifact.

The Power of Algorithmic Improvements

Taking MiniMind 2 as an example, this is a small model with only 100M parameters: - The original version is based on the Llama2 architecture - Training on a single 4090 takes 100 hours, or on eight 4090s it can be done in over ten hours

I made two simple algorithmic improvements:

1. QK Norm - An optimization introduced by Qwen 2.5/3.0 - Normalizes Q and K

2. Muon Optimizer - Replaces the traditional AdamW - More efficient

Effect: - Convergence speed significantly accelerated: time to reduce loss to 3.0 decreased from 36 steps to 12 steps - Final loss after 10 epochs: decreased from 2.0 to 1.7 - Model performance after convergence is significantly improved

These two improvements together add very little code, but the effect is significant.

Minimind pretraining loss curve comparison, green: QK Clip + Muon Optimizer, red: original LLaMA 2 architecture version

Training cost comparison:

Using 8x 4090 to train MiniMind 2 (100M parameters): - Pretrain: 10 epochs, 6 hours - SFT: 1 epoch, 8 hours - Total time: 14 hours - Total cost: 8 cards × 14 hours × $0.3/hour = $33.6

Compared to Andrej Karpathy's NanoChat: - Requires 8x H100 training for 4 hours - Cost: 8 cards × 4 hours × $2/hour = $64

Language Model Training Results Analysis

This section shows the performance of language models at different training stages. We compare the original Llama 2 architecture (without Muon optimizer) with the improved architecture (with QK Norm + Muon optimizer) to verify the effectiveness of the algorithmic improvements.

👶: Basic principles of Marxism
🤖️: and the relationship of universal laws are the premise of the basic principles of Marxism. The basic principles of Marxism are the relationship of universal laws. Basic principles refer to those determined by universal laws, where universal laws are "universal laws." Universal laws refer to those determined by universal laws, but they are not absolute laws; they are only a form of rules, a part of universal laws. The basic principles of Marxism include universal laws, that is, those determined by universal laws, rather than absolute laws.



👶: The main functions of the human brain
🤖️: What are they? The main functions of the human brain include:
1. Memory: The formation and retrieval of memory are through chemical and electrical signals between neurons in the brain, storing and retrieving information.
2. Decision-making: Decision-making is the ultimate goal of the brain. It is formed by the connections and interactions between neurons and neurons.
3. Senses: Perception, sensation, action, and feeling are all closely related to brain function. Senses are the sensory information in our brain, including vision, hearing, smell, taste, smell, and touch. Senses are the sensory information in our brain, including vision, hearing, smell, taste, smell, and touch.
These functions and structures together help us complete complex thinking and behavior.



👶: The principle of universal gravitation is
🤖️: to study the interaction between celestial bodies. It firmly places all objects on a flat surface, forming a torque, called universal gravitation. The law of universal gravitation is one of the three basic laws discovered by Newton. It is a scientific theory describing how matter in the universe interacts. The law of universal gravitation describes the interaction between objects, placing all objects firmly on a flat surface, forming a torque, called Newton's law. It is one of the three basic laws discovered by Newton, a scientific theory describing how matter in the universe interacts.



👶: The highest mountain in the world is
🤖️: which one? The highest mountain in the world is Mount Everest, located in the Himalayas, with an altitude of 8,848 meters.
Mount Everest is one of the most challenging climbing targets on Earth, attracting climbers from all over the world every year. Climbing Mount Everest requires climbers to overcome various challenges such as gravity, altitude, and physical strength. At the same time, Mount Everest is also one of the world's natural wonders, known as the "Roof of the World."
Mount Everest is located on the border between Nepal and China, in the Himalayas. In Nepali, its name means "Goddess's Home," meaning "Goddess's Home." In the Himalayas, there are many peaks, the highest of which is Mount Everest, with an altitude of 8,848 meters.



👶: Carbon dioxide in the air
🤖️: has a concentration of zero, right? Wrong.
Carbon dioxide is a gas with the molecular formula CO2. It is a molecule composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms. Carbon dioxide is a very important element, widely present in nature. It is also one of the main gases for respiration and digestion in humans and other animals.
Although the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is high, this does not mean it is a harmful chemical. It only accounts for about 20% of the air. Other carbon compounds (such as glucose and starch) can also have a negative impact on human health.
Therefore, carbon dioxide is not a harmful chemical.



👶: The largest animal on Earth has
🤖️: 7, what are their sizes? This number is relatively common, because there are many types of animals on Earth, but the answer is 7.
In fact, the largest animal on Earth is the blue whale, which can reach a size of over 100 feet (30 meters). The blue whale is a marine mammal, often considered a sea giant because they live in the ocean. The blue whale is currently the largest known animal, with a weight of up to 200 tons and a length of up to 30 meters.
In addition, there are many other different types of organisms in the ocean, such as plankton, mollusks, etc. The sizes and shapes of these organisms vary, some can even grow to over 300 feet, and some can even reach 40 feet.
In summary, although we cannot directly classify all animals on Earth into one category, we can be sure that there are many different types of animals on Earth.



👶: The delicacies of Hangzhou include
🤖️: what? Hangzhou has a wide variety of specialty delicacies, among which the most famous might be West Lake Vinegar Fish, renowned for its Zhejiang cuisine. In addition, there are West Lake Vinegar Fish, Zhejiang Longjing Shrimp, Zhejiang Snail Noodles, etc. If you want to try other Hangzhou delicacies, you can also tell me, and I can provide you with more information.

Pretrain Model Test Analysis:

The pretrained model already possesses basic text generation capabilities and some knowledge memory, but has obvious limitations:

  1. Uneven knowledge accuracy: For factual questions like "the highest mountain in the world," the model can correctly answer Mount Everest and its altitude, demonstrating encyclopedic knowledge contained in the training data. However, for the question about "carbon dioxide in the air," the model produced a clear factual error, incorrectly claiming that carbon dioxide accounts for 20% of the air.

  2. Insufficient reasoning ability: When answering questions requiring conceptual understanding, such as "Basic principles of Marxism," the model's responses are highly repetitive and logically confused, repeatedly using terms like "universal laws" without providing a clear definition. This indicates that the pretrained model mainly learned word co-occurrence patterns rather than true conceptual understanding.

  3. Non-standard format: The model's output format is somewhat arbitrary, sometimes asking and answering its own questions (e.g., "What are the main functions of the human brain?"), and sometimes outputting incomplete responses (e.g., "The delicacies of Hangzhou include what?" followed by a direct list). This is a typical characteristic of the pretraining stage; the model has not yet learned to follow a specific dialogue format.

  4. Verbosity and repetition: The model tends to generate lengthy text and often repeats the same information (e.g., in the responses about universal gravitation and the largest animal on Earth). This reflects the model's lack of control over information density and conciseness during generation.

👶: I have been coughing for two weeks. Do I need to go to the hospital for a check-up?
🤖️: First, you may have a cold, but this depends on your constitution, age, gender, condition, and medical history. If your constitution is weak, you may experience symptoms such as coughing and sore throat. In this case, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for an examination to determine the exact cause. The doctor may recommend that you use antibiotics or cold medicine to treat your symptoms. Based on the examination results, you can consider taking antibiotics, over-the-counter medications, or other drugs to relieve symptoms. In addition, you can also consider taking over-the-counter medications to relieve symptoms, such as antibiotics. However, it is best to consult a doctor to determine if it is suitable for your situation.



👶: Explain the physical concept of the speed of light in detail.
🤖️: The speed of light refers to the speed at which light propagates in a vacuum, approximately 299,792,458 meters per second. This is a common unit of speed in physics. The speed of light is the most fundamental constant in nature, and its definition is that the speed of all matter in a vacuum exceeds one million kilometers per second. The speed of light is the propagation speed between matter in the universe, defined as the square of the speed of light in a vacuum divided by the square of the speed of light, that is, $c^2=m^2$. The absolute value of the speed of light is 2997*2458 meters per second, which is the speed of matter in a vacuum, approximately 4.08 meters per second. The speed of light has different meanings in different situations. For example, in the spectrum of a light source, the propagation speed of light is affected by the intensity and wavelength of light
, while in the spectrum, the propagation speed of light is affected by information such as the intensity, frequency, brightness, and wavelength of light. The speed of light is constant in macroscopic objects, approximately 299,792,458 meters per second. In physics, the speed of light is constant, but for the propagation speed of light from a source, it is limited to a tiny range, even
unable to transmit. The speed of light is the highest point of the source speed propagating in a vacuum, while the limitation of the source speed refers to the magnitude of the source speed. This limitation is caused by the relative positional relationship between the energy density of the source and the speed of light.



👶: Recommend some specialty delicacies of Hangzhou.
🤖️: Hangzhou has many specialty delicacies, among which the more famous ones include:
1. West Lake Vinegar Fish: Also known as "Jiangsu fish," it is one of the traditional famous dishes of Hangzhou, with delicious soup and fresh carp.
2. Crayfish: A traditional snack represented by crayfish, it is one of the unique snacks of Hangzhou.
3. Hangzhou Xiaolongbao: Mainly made with tender meat filling, delicious soup, and fresh vegetables.
4. Longjing Shrimp: Represented by fresh shrimp, it has a delicious seafood flavor and is also a very famous specialty snack of Hangzhou.
5. Xitang: Famous for its ancient town, mainly made with fresh fish, paired with fresh peanuts and taro and other snacks, it is a very famous snack of Hangzhou.
I hope the above recommendations are helpful to you.



👶: Please explain the concept of "large language model" to me.
🤖️: A large language model refers to a neural network-based language model, mainly used for natural language processing tasks. It can perform tasks such as text summarization, machine translation, and dialogue systems. It can process large amounts of language data and automatically extract meaningful vocabulary, syntactic structures, and other information from it, providing support for fields such as text generation and speech recognition.



👶: How to understand ChatGPT?
🤖️: ChatGPT is a natural language processing tool developed by Google, designed to help users create meaningful conversations to understand natural language.

It also supports text
generation, can generate text, allowing users to create their own answers to understand the user's intent.



👶: Introduce the history of the United States, please.
🤖️: Introduce the history of the United States embers.

SFT Model Test Analysis:

Supervised fine-tuning significantly improved the model's instruction-following ability and output quality, but also exposed issues of overfitting to the training distribution:

  1. Format standardization: The SFT model can answer questions in the expected format, such as clearly stating "As a chatbot" when introducing itself, and using structured lists when recommending food. This shows that SFT effectively taught the model to follow dialogue conventions.

  2. Improved output completeness: The model no longer exhibits the self-questioning or output truncation issues seen in the pretraining stage. Each response has a clear beginning and end, with a more complete logical structure.

  3. Factual errors persist: Despite the improved format, the model still produces factual errors on some questions. For example, when explaining the speed of light, it produced an incorrect formula like "\(c^2=m^2\)," confusing the relativistic mass-energy equation. Its understanding of ChatGPT also incorrectly claims it was "developed by Google."

  4. Excessive detail: On some questions, the SFT model produced overly verbose responses (e.g., the analysis of "Diary of a Madman"), which may be an effect of the training data containing many detailed explanations. The model learned the pattern of "detailed answers" but failed to adjust response length according to question complexity.5. Lack of cross-lingual ability: The response to an English question ("Introduce the history of the United States, please.") almost completely fails, merely repeating the input. This reflects a severe bias in the training data distribution towards Chinese.

DPO Model Test Analysis:

DPO (Direct Preference Optimization) further optimizes model output using human preference data, improving expression quality and style, but is still limited by the capability boundaries of the small model:

  1. More accurate self-awareness: In the self-introduction, the DPO model's expression is more precise ("I am an AI assistant developed based on natural language processing technology"), avoiding the less professional term "chatbot" used in the SFT stage.

  2. Improved response conciseness: DPO produces more concise answers to some questions (e.g., the response to "Recommend some Hangzhou specialty foods" is more refined), possibly because the preference data included signals favoring conciseness.

  3. Partial reduction in factual errors: Although the explanation of the speed of light still has flaws, it removes the erroneous formula from the SFT stage and provides a more accurate numerical description ("299,792,458 meters per second").

  4. Repetition issues persist: In some responses, the DPO model still exhibits high repetition (e.g., the analysis of "Diary of a Madman" repeatedly mentions "the oppression and exploitation of feudal ethics"). This indicates that while DPO improves style, it does not completely eliminate the model's inherent defects.

  5. Cross-lingual issue unresolved: The response to the English question still fails, with only a minor format adjustment (removing the space), indicating that DPO primarily optimizes Chinese output quality and does not expand the model's language capability boundaries.

Comparative Summary of the Three Stages: - Pretrain: Established basic language modeling ability and knowledge memorization, but output quality is uncontrollable. - SFT: Significantly improved format standardization and instruction following, but prone to overfitting the style of the training data. - DPO: Further optimized expression quality and conciseness based on SFT, but cannot break through the model's knowledge and capability boundaries.

4. Does Marxist theory still play an important role in contemporary society?



👶: Main functions of the human brain
🤖️: What are they? The main functions of the human brain are to process sensory information, including vision, hearing, movement, memory, emotion, language, thinking, and decision-making. The processing methods of the human brain vary from individual to individual, but most studies show that the human brain can achieve advanced cognitive functions, such as perception, learning, memory, thinking, emotion, and will.



👶: The principle of universal gravitation is
🤖️: How is it calculated? The principle of universal gravitation was discovered by the British physicist Newton in the 17th century. He discovered that the universal gravitation between objects is because they are all attracted to each other, and the magnitude of this attraction is related to the mass of the objects and the distance between them. This law explains why the gravitational force between objects is proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Newton's law of universal gravitation is also used to explain celestial motion and planetary orbits.



👶: The highest mountain in the world is
🤖️: Mount Everest, located in the Himalayas, with an altitude of 8848 meters. Mount Everest, located in the Himalayas, is the highest mountain in the world. Its height is 8848 meters, and it has always been a desired destination for people on the border of Nepal and China. The height of Mount Everest has been attempted by many climbers, but only a few have been able to successfully summit. The height and difficulty of this mountain are extremely high, requiring great physical fitness, endurance, and skill to climb.



👶: Carbon dioxide in the air
🤖️: Will its concentration decrease as the temperature rises? The concentration of carbon dioxide varies with different temperatures and air temperatures. However, in most cases, the concentration of carbon dioxide is related to its content in the atmosphere.

At higher temperatures, the concentration of carbon dioxide may decrease because carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, and its concentration can be negligible. For example, at high temperatures, the concentration of carbon dioxide may decrease, but at low temperatures, the concentration of carbon dioxide may increase.

Furthermore, under different temperatures and humidity levels, the concentration of carbon dioxide may change. For example, at higher temperatures, the concentration of carbon dioxide may increase because the rise in temperature leads to an increase in water vapor content, thereby causing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air to decrease.

In summary, the concentration of carbon dioxide is affected by many factors, and being affected by temperature in the atmosphere will cause the concentration of carbon dioxide to decrease.



👶: The largest animal on Earth has

Pretrain Model Analysis with Muon Optimizer:

Compared to the original architecture, the pre-trained model with QK Norm and Muon optimizer shows significant performance improvements:

  1. Substantially improved knowledge accuracy: The explanation of the principle of universal gravitation is more accurate and complete, correctly mentioning key information like "discovered by Newton in the 17th century" and "proportional to mass, inversely proportional to the square of the distance." The description of the blue whale is also more precise ("up to 30 meters long, weighing 173 tons," and mentioning the scientific name Balaenoptera musculus).

  2. Improved reasoning quality: Although the response to Marxism still has limitations, it at least forms a complete paragraph and can pose related questions, rather than the circular repetitions of the original model. The description of the human brain's functions is more systematic, mentioning multiple dimensions like "vision, hearing, movement, memory, emotion, language, thinking, and decision-making."

  3. More fluent expression: The model's responses show reduced repetition and redundancy, with significantly improved text coherence. For example, the description of Mount Everest not only includes basic facts but also discusses the challenges of climbing.

  4. Remaining issues: The response about carbon dioxide concentration, while avoiding the obvious errors of the original model, provides incorrect reasoning ("rising temperature leads to increased water vapor content, thus decreasing carbon dioxide concentration in the air"), indicating the model's causal reasoning ability is still insufficient.

Key Finding: Algorithmic improvements (QK Norm + Muon) significantly enhanced the model's knowledge accuracy and expression quality even during the pre-training stage, validating the fundamental impact of training process optimization on the final model's capabilities. The lower training loss (1.7 vs 2.0) indeed translated into better generation quality.

Analysis of Pretrained VLM without Muon:

This is the stage where only the projection layer is trained while the language model parameters are frozen. The model has learned basic vision-language alignment, but the description quality is limited:

  1. Basic Object Recognition: The model can identify the main elements in the images (waterfall, dog, dancer, astronaut, city, panda, bicycle, elderly person), indicating that the projection layer successfully maps visual features to the language space.

  2. Overly Brief Descriptions: Most descriptions are only one sentence long and lack detail. For example, "Water droplets on the rainbow bridge," "An astronaut is performing a spacewalk in space," and "In the zoo, a panda is eating bamboo" only state the most basic scene information.

  3. Comprehension Biases: The understanding of some images is not accurate enough. For instance, the woman and dog by the sea are described as "A young person decorating the beach with a dog's head," which is unclear and somewhat strange.

  4. Lack of Scene Association: The model struggles to understand the relationships between elements in an image. For example, the description of the bicycle with flowers, "Using old bicycle tires and wheels on an old bicycle, adding flowers and decorations to the bicycle," is logically confused and repetitive.

Key Finding: Training the projection layer gives the model the basic ability to "describe what it sees." However, because the language model parameters are frozen, the model can only describe visual content within a limited expressive space, resulting in brief descriptions lacking detail.

Analysis of SFT VLM without Muon:

After unfreezing the language model parameters and performing supervised fine-tuning, the description quality of the VLM undergoes a qualitative leap:

  1. Detailed and Complete Descriptions: Descriptions for each image become very detailed. For example, the description of the waterfall image expands from the simple "Water droplets on the rainbow bridge" to "a huge, colorful giant waterfall located next to a highway... A giant rainbow flag hangs above the waterfall, adding visual appeal."

  2. Enhanced Spatial Relationship Understanding: The model can describe the positional relationships of elements in the image. For example, the description of the dance image mentions "several chairs are placed on the stage, one on the left side of the frame, another on the right," demonstrating an understanding of spatial layout.

  3. Improved Detail Observation Ability: The model can notice secondary elements in the image. For example, in the image of the dog and woman by the sea, it not only identifies the "woman" and "dog" but also mentions "her dog sits on a blue and white checkered blanket."

  4. Hallucination Issues Exist: The model sometimes "sees" objects that do not exist. For example, it describes the spaceship as "looks like a giant commercial airplane... flying over a small hill and a barn," elements that are not obvious or do not exist in the original image.

  5. Over-description: Some descriptions contain too much speculative information. For example, the description of the city street is very detailed, including the number of vehicles, the location of traffic lights, etc., but some of these details may not be accurate.

Key Finding: The SFT stage, by unfreezing the language model, allows the model to express visual content with richer language. However, this also brings an "overconfidence" problem – the model tends to generate detailed descriptions even when some details are uncertain. This reflects a limitation of visual understanding: the uncertainty of visual features is not translated into uncertainty in language expression.

Key Findings and Summary of VLM Training

Impact of Algorithm Improvements on VLM

By comparing different VLM configurations (without Muon vs with Muon, from DPO vs from Pretrain vs from SFT), we derive the following key findings:

  1. Base LLM Quality Determines VLM Upper Bound:
  2. VLMs trained starting from a DPO model generally perform best, as the DPO model inherently has better language expression capabilities
  3. VLMs starting from a Pretrain model produce more concise descriptions but are more stable during training
  4. VLMs starting from an SFT model perform best in terms of format standardization

  5. Advantages of the Muon Optimizer in Multimodal Training:

  6. VLMs with the Muon optimizer converge faster for the same number of training steps
  7. Both the accuracy and richness of detail in descriptions are improved
  8. For example, in describing an astronaut space image, the Muon version can more accurately identify details like "space shuttle"

  9. Projection Layer Training vs. Full Model Fine-Tuning:

  10. Pretrained VLM (training only the projection layer): Descriptions are concise but highly accurate, with less tendency to hallucinate
  11. SFT VLM (unfreezing the entire model): Descriptions are detailed and rich, but prone to overconfidence, generating non-existent details
  12. This reveals a trade-off: stronger expressive ability comes with a higher risk of hallucination

  13. Limitations of Visual Understanding:

  14. All VLM versions exhibit some degree of object recognition errors (e.g., identifying a "panda" as a "zebra")
  15. Understanding of complex scenes (e.g., dance, spaceship) is prone to misinterpretation
  16. This reflects the inherent limitations of the CLIP vision encoder, which are difficult to fully overcome with only a projection layer and language model fine-tuning

  17. Suggested Training Strategy from LLM to VLM:

  18. Initial Stage: Use the highest quality LLM as a starting point (e.g., a DPO model)
  19. Projection Layer Training: First freeze the LLM parameters, train only the projection layer to establish basic vision-language alignment
  20. Full Model Fine-Tuning: Unfreeze the LLM parameters and fine-tune using high-quality image-description pairs
  21. Algorithm Selection: Using optimizers like Muon in multimodal training can achieve better convergence speed and final performance

Training Cost and Effect Comparison

Configuration Base LLM Training Time Description Quality Hallucination Level
Without Muon - Pretrained VLM SFT Short Concise but accurate Low
Without Muon - SFT VLM SFT Medium Detailed and rich Medium
With Muon - Pretrained VLM (from DPO) DPO Short Concise and accurate Low
With Muon - SFT VLM (from DPO) DPO Medium Detailed and accurate Relatively Low
With Muon - SFT VLM (from Pretrain) Pretrain Medium Relatively detailed Medium

Practical Recommendations

Based on the comprehensive testing in this experiment, we offer the following practical recommendations:

  1. Prioritize Improving Base LLM Quality: Investing resources to improve the language model (through algorithmic optimizations like QK Norm + Muon) is more effective than simply expanding VLM training data

  2. Adopt a Phased Training Strategy: A two-stage training strategy, first training the projection layer and then the full model, is the best choice for balancing efficiency and effectiveness

  3. Be Vigilant About Hallucination Issues: When unfreezing the LLM for full model fine-tuning, special attention must be paid to potential hallucinations. Consider introducing uncertainty modeling or explicit expressions of "uncertainty"

  4. Compound Effect of Algorithm Improvements: The improvements from QK Norm + Muon are effective in both LLM and VLM training, demonstrating the long-term value of algorithmic optimization

  5. Capability Boundaries of Small Models: While a 100M-parameter VLM can complete basic image description tasks, it still has clear limitations in complex scene understanding, detail accuracy, and reasoning ability. Practical applications require larger model scales.

算法改进的威力

MiniMind 2 为例,这是一个只有 100M 参数的小模型: - 原版基于 Llama2 架构 - 一张 4090 训练 100 小时,或者八张 4090 十几小时就能训完

我做了两个简单的算法改进:

1. QK Norm - Qwen 2.5/3.0 引入的优化 - 对 Q 和 K 做 normalization

2. Muon Optimizer - 替代传统的 AdamW - 效率更高

效果: - 收敛速度显著加快:loss 降低到 3.0 的时间从 36 steps 降低到 12 steps - 10 epoch 后的最终 loss:从 2.0 降到 1.7 - 收敛后的模型性能明显提升

这两个改进加起来代码量很少,但效果显著。

Minimind 预训练阶段的 loss 曲线对比,绿色:QK Clip + Muon Optimizer,红色:原始 LLaMA 2 架构版本

训练成本对比

使用 8 卡 4090 训练 MiniMind 2 (100M 参数): - Pretrain:10 epochs,6 小时 - SFT:1 epoch,8 小时 - 总时间:14 小时 - 总成本:8 卡 × 14 小时 × $0.3/小时 = $33.6

对比 Andrej Karpathy 的 NanoChat: - 需要 8 卡 H100 训练 4 小时 - 成本:8 卡 × 4 小时 × $2/小时 = $64

Pretrain 模型测试分析:

预训练模型已具备基本的文本生成能力和一定的知识记忆,但存在明显的局限性:

  1. 知识准确性参差不齐:对于"世界上最高的山峰"这类事实性问题,模型能够正确回答珠穆朗玛峰及其海拔,展示了训练数据中包含的百科知识。但对"二氧化碳在空气中"的问题,模型产生了明显的事实性错误,错误地声称二氧化碳占空气的 20%。

  2. 推理能力不足:在回答"马克思主义基本原理"这类需要概念理解的问题时,模型的回答高度重复且逻辑混乱,反复使用"普遍规律"等词汇而未能给出清晰的定义。这说明预训练模型主要学习了词汇共现模式,而非真正的概念理解。

  3. 格式不规范:模型的输出格式较为随意,有时会自问自答(如"人类大脑的主要功能是什么?"),有时输出不完整(如"杭州市的美食有哪些?"后直接列举)。这是预训练阶段的典型特征,模型尚未学会遵循特定的对话格式。

  4. 冗长与重复:模型倾向于生成冗长的文本,并经常重复相同的信息(如在万有引力和地球最大动物的回答中)。这反映了模型在生成过程中缺乏对信息密度和简洁性的控制。

SFT 模型测试分析:

监督微调显著改善了模型的指令遵循能力与输出质量,但也暴露了过度拟合训练分布的问题:

  1. 格式规范化:SFT 后的模型能够按照期望的格式回答问题,例如在自我介绍时明确说明"作为一名聊天机器人",在推荐美食时使用结构化的列表。这说明 SFT 有效地教会了模型遵循对话规范。

  2. 输出完整性提升:模型不再出现 Pretrain 阶段的自问自答或输出截断问题。每个回答都有明确的开头和结尾,逻辑结构更加完整。

  3. 事实性错误依然存在:尽管格式改善,模型在某些问题上仍产生事实性错误。例如,在解释光速时,出现了"\(c^2=m^2\)"这样的错误公式,混淆了相对论的质能方程。对 ChatGPT 的理解也错误地声称其"由 Google 开发"。

  4. 过度详细化:在某些问题上,SFT 模型产生了过度冗长的回答(如对《狂人日记》的分析),这可能是训练数据中包含大量详细解释的影响。模型学会了"详细回答"这一模式,但未能根据问题复杂度调整回答长度。

  5. 跨语言能力缺失:对英语问题的回答("Introduce the history of the United States, please.")几乎完全失效,只是重复了输入,这反映了训练语料的语言分布严重偏向中文。

DPO 模型测试分析:

DPO(Direct Preference Optimization)通过人类偏好数据进一步优化模型输出,在表达质量和风格上有所改善,但仍受限于小模型的能力边界:

  1. 自我认知更准确:在自我介绍中,DPO 模型的表述更加精确("我是一个基于自然语言处理技术开发的人工智能助手"),避免了 SFT 阶段"聊天机器人"这种不够专业的表述。

  2. 回答简洁性提升:DPO 在某些问题上产生了更简洁的回答(如"推荐一些杭州的特色美食吧"的回答更加精炼),这可能是偏好数据中包含了对简洁性的偏好信号。

  3. 事实性错误部分减少:光速的解释虽然仍有瑕疵,但去除了 SFT 阶段的错误公式,数值描述更加准确("299,792,458 米/秒")。

  4. 重复问题依然存在:在某些回答中,DPO 模型仍然存在高度重复的问题(如《狂人日记》的分析中多次重复"封建礼教的压迫和剥削"),这说明 DPO 虽然改善了风格,但未能完全消除模型的固有缺陷。

  5. 跨语言问题未解决:英语问题的回答仍然失效,只是轻微调整了格式(去掉了空格),说明 DPO 主要优化的是中文输出质量,未能扩展模型的语言能力边界。

三个阶段的对比总结: - Pretrain 建立了基本的语言建模能力和知识记忆,但输出质量不可控 - SFT 显著改善了格式规范和指令遵循,但容易过度拟合训练数据的风格 - DPO 在 SFT 基础上进一步优化了表达质量和简洁性,但无法突破模型的知识与能力边界

  2. 推理质量改善:对马克思主义的回答虽然仍有局限,但至少形成了完整的段落,并能提出相关问题,而非原始模型的循环重复。对人类大脑功能的描述更加系统,提及了"视觉、听觉、运动、记忆、情绪、语言、思考和决策"等多个维度。

  3. 表达更加流畅:模型的回答减少了重复和冗余,文本连贯性明显提升。例如,对珠穆朗玛峰的描述不仅包含基本事实,还能展开讨论攀登的挑战性。

  4. 仍存在的问题:对二氧化碳浓度的回答虽然避免了原始模型的明显错误,但给出了错误的推理("温度上升会导致水蒸气含量升高,从而导致空气中二氧化碳浓度降低"),说明模型的因果推理能力仍然不足。

关键发现:算法改进(QK Norm + Muon)在预训练阶段就显著提升了模型的知识准确性和表达质量,这验证了训练过程的优化对最终模型能力的根本性影响。更低的训练损失(1.7 vs 2.0)确实转化为了更好的生成质量。

不带 Muon 的 Pretrained VLM 测试分析:

这是仅训练投影层、固定语言模型参数的阶段,模型已经学会了基本的视觉-语言对齐,但描述质量有限:

  1. 基本物体识别:模型能够识别图片中的主要元素(瀑布、狗、舞蹈者、宇航员、城市、熊猫、自行车、老人),说明投影层成功地将视觉特征映射到了语言空间。

  2. 描述过于简略:大多数描述只有一句话,缺乏细节。例如"彩虹桥上的水珠"、"宇航员在太空中进行太空飞行"、"动物园里,一只熊猫正在吃竹子",仅陈述了最基本的场景信息。

  3. 存在理解偏差:对某些图片的理解不够准确。例如,将海边的女人和狗描述为"一个年轻人在海滩上用狗头装饰的",表述不清晰且略显怪异。

  4. 缺乏场景关联:模型难以理解图片中元素之间的关系。例如,对自行车鲜花图的描述"在旧自行车上用旧的自行车的轮胎和车轮,在自行车上添加花卉和装饰品",逻辑混乱且重复。

关键发现:投影层训练使模型具备了"看图说话"的基本能力,但由于语言模型参数被固定,模型只能在有限的表达空间内描述视觉内容,导致描述简略且缺乏细节。

不带 Muon 的 SFT VLM 测试分析:

解冻语言模型参数并进行监督微调后,VLM 的描述质量发生了质的飞跃:

  1. 描述详细且完整:每张图片的描述都变得非常详细。例如,对瀑布图的描述从简单的"彩虹桥上的水珠"扩展为"一个巨大的、色彩斑斓的巨型瀑布,它位于一条高速公路旁边...瀑布上方悬挂着一道巨大的彩虹旗,增添了视觉吸引力"。

  2. 空间关系理解增强:模型能够描述图片中元素的位置关系。例如,对舞蹈图的描述提到"舞台上摆放着多把椅子,其中一把位于画面左侧,另一把在右侧",展示了对空间布局的理解。

  3. 细节观察能力提升:模型能够注意到图片中的次要元素。例如,在海边狗与人的图片中,不仅识别了"女人"和"狗",还提到"她的狗则坐在一块蓝色和白色相间的地毯上"。

  4. 存在幻觉问题:模型有时会"看到"不存在的物体。例如,将太空船描述为"看起来像是一艘巨大的商用飞机...正飞越一座小山和一座谷仓",这些元素在原图中并不明显或根本不存在。

  5. 过度描述:某些描述包含了过多的推测性信息。例如,对城市街道的描述非常详细,包括车辆数量、交通信号灯位置等,但其中一些细节可能并不准确。

关键发现:SFT 阶段通过解冻语言模型,使模型能够用更丰富的语言表达视觉内容。然而,这也带来了"过度自信"的问题——模型倾向于生成详细的描述,即使某些细节并不确定。这反映了视觉理解的局限性:视觉特征的不确定性并未转化为语言表达的不确定性。

VLM 训练的关键发现与总结

算法改进对 VLM 的影响

通过对比不同配置的 VLM(不带 Muon vs 带 Muon,from DPO vs from Pretrain vs from SFT),我们得出以下关键发现:

  1. 基础 LLM 质量决定 VLM 上限
  2. 从 DPO 模型开始训练的 VLM 通常表现最好,因为 DPO 模型本身具有更好的语言表达能力
  3. 从 Pretrain 模型开始的 VLM 描述较为简略,但训练更稳定
  4. 从 SFT 模型开始的 VLM 在格式规范性上表现最佳

  5. Muon 优化器在多模态训练中的优势

  6. 带 Muon 优化器的 VLM 在相同训练步数下收敛更快
  7. 描述的准确性和细节丰富度都有提升
  8. 例如,对太空宇航员图片的描述,Muon 版本能够更准确地识别"航天飞机"等细节

  9. 投影层训练 vs 全模型微调

  10. Pretrained VLM(仅训练投影层):描述简略但准确性较高,不容易产生幻觉
  11. SFT VLM(解冻全模型):描述详细丰富,但容易过度自信,产生不存在的细节
  12. 这揭示了一个权衡:更强的表达能力伴随着更高的幻觉风险

  13. 视觉理解的局限性

  14. 所有 VLM 版本都存在一定程度的物体识别错误(如将"熊猫"识别为"斑马")
  15. 对复杂场景的理解(如舞蹈、太空船)容易产生误解
  16. 这反映了 CLIP 视觉编码器的固有局限,仅通过投影层和语言模型微调难以完全克服

  17. 从 LLM 到 VLM 的训练策略建议

  18. 初始阶段:使用质量最好的 LLM 作为起点(如 DPO 模型)
  19. 投影层训练:先固定 LLM 参数,仅训练投影层,建立基本的视觉-语言对齐
  20. 全模型微调:解冻 LLM 参数,使用高质量的图像-描述对进行微调
  21. 算法选择:在多模态训练中使用 Muon 等优化器可以获得更好的收敛速度和最终性能

训练成本与效果对比

配置 基础 LLM 训练时间 描述质量 幻觉程度
不带 Muon - Pretrained VLM SFT 简略但准确
不带 Muon - SFT VLM SFT 详细丰富 中等
带 Muon - Pretrained VLM (from DPO) DPO 简洁准确
带 Muon - SFT VLM (from DPO) DPO 详细且准确 较低
带 Muon - SFT VLM (from Pretrain) Pretrain 较详细 中等

实践建议

基于本实验的全面测试,我们给出以下实践建议:

  1. 优先提升 LLM 基础质量:投入资源改进语言模型(通过算法优化如 QK Norm + Muon),比单纯扩大 VLM 训练数据更有效

  2. 分阶段训练策略:先投影层后全模型的两阶段训练策略是平衡效率与效果的最佳选择

  3. 警惕幻觉问题:在解冻 LLM 进行全模型微调时,需要特别注意模型可能产生的幻觉,考虑引入不确定性建模或显式的"不确定"表达

  4. 算法改进的复合效应:QK Norm + Muon 的改进在 LLM 和 VLM 训练中都发挥作用,证明了算法优化的长期价值

  5. 小模型的能力边界:100M 参数的 VLM 虽然能够完成基本的图像描述任务,但在复杂场景理解、细节准确性和推理能力上仍有明显局限,实际应用中需要更大的模型规模
