CEED B1 — gemma-4-e4b-it, supervised fine-tuning, no teacher

A LoRA fine-tune of `google/gemma-4-e4b-it` trained with cross-entropy on gold answers only, with no teacher -- the control that says how much of a distilled Group's gain is distillation rather than fine-tuning.

The adapter has been folded into the base weights, so this is a standalone checkpoint: load it exactly like the base model, with no PEFT and no CEED code.

This is Group B1 of the CEED study (Causal Expert–Evidence Distillation), a research artifact published for reproducibility. It is not a product.

Usage

python
from transformers import AutoModelForImageTextToText, AutoProcessor

model = AutoModelForImageTextToText.from_pretrained("gnitoahc/ceed-b1", dtype="float16")
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("gnitoahc/ceed-b1")

The model was trained and scored with a short-answer instruction in the prompt. Without it an instruction-tuned model answers "The total written in the image is **28**." against gold "28" and scores zero on every metric here.

Scored by CEED's own harness (harness_version: ceed-direct-1) with greedy decoding, on CEED's own 10% validation split.

These numbers are not comparable to published DocVQA / GQA / ChartQA leaderboard results. Different splits, different prompt, different decoding. They are meaningful only against the other CEED Groups, which were scored identically.

Limitations

  • This is a LoRA result. Merging folds the adapter into the weights; it does not turn a rank-4 adapter into a full fine-tune. CEED's own ADR-0005 bars LoRA numbers from the study's headline table, because a null result under a small adapter cannot be attributed between "the signal does not transfer" and "the adapter lacked the capacity to hold it". Read any comparison involving this checkpoint with that in mind.
  • This Group has no teacher. B1 is the study's control: it isolates how much of a distilled Group's gain is distillation rather than plain fine-tuning. It is not itself a distillation result.
  • Trained on document, natural-image and chart VQA in English only. Behaviour outside that is untested.
  • Inherits the base model's limitations and the Gemma licence.
