3.1 Pre-training Data

  1. How did Qwen3 enlarge its pretraining data to 36T tokens?
    Qwen2.5-VL extracted text from large numbers of PDF-like documents (cleaned up by Qwen2.5); Qwen2.5, Qwen2.5-Math and Qwen2.5-Coder generated trillions of synthetic tokens (textbooks, QA, instructions, code); and more multilingual data was added. An annotation system labeled over 30T tokens (educational value, domain, safety) so the mixture could be tuned per instance on small proxy models.
