by Alibaba

Released 6 days after Qwen3.5 122B A10B · All Alibaba releases

Qwen3.5 9B is a 9 billion parameter multimodal model with a unified vision-language foundation trained with early fusion on multimodal tokens, combining Gated DeltaNet and Mixture-of-Experts layers for efficient inference. It supports a 262,144 token native context window, extensible toward roughly one million tokens with YaRN scaling. Reported scores include MMLU-Pro 82.5, GPQA Diamond 81.7, and MMBench 90.1, covering reasoning and vision understanding. It runs in thinking mode by default for internal reasoning. With robust tool calling and a balanced performance-to-efficiency profile, it handles text, image, and video understanding across more than 200 languages and works well for agentic production deployments.
