A System 1 decision model on Qwen3.5-35B-A3B (35 B parameters, about 3 B active per token), up to 256 options in one pass

Decision Index 0.3, public suite: 59.75 (our scoring with the kit), against 53.64 for autotrust/JEV-27B-VL on the board. Approximate public vision score 72.08 (our rebuild of the vision benchmarks; JEV-27B-VL 71.67 on the same rebuild, a tie within noise). Median single-request latency 241 ms on one B200 (JEV-27B-VL 271 ms).

NVFP4 version: autotrust/JEV-35B-NVFP4, the same model with its routed experts in NVFP4: 25.6 GB download, 23 GiB of GPU memory (bf16: 72 GB, 66 GiB), so it runs on one 32–48 GB GPU. Decision Index 0.3 public 59.18 (bf16 59.75), vision rebuild 71.23 (bf16 72.08), 96.6 % of the Decision Index answers identical to bf16, same latency, same serve.sh and API.

JEV-35B: all 140,178 scoreable requests of the 0.3 public suite answered (0 errors), System 1 only (thinking off), every choice read in one pass (up to 256 options), scored with the kit's score --edition 0.3. Our scoring, not a board entry: the board's Full score also counts private tests (80 %), which only its maintainers run. JEV-27B-VL: the board's public numbers for JEV-27B, whose text decisions JEV-27B-VL reproduces (see the JEV-27B-VL card).

Images (approximate public vision score)

The vision benchmarks of the Decision Index are not published; this is our rebuild of their public datasets (CV-Bench, BLINK, RealWorldQA, CharXiv, InfographicVQA, Mind2Web, CORD + FUNSD, Hateful Memes, R-Bench-M, MMMU-Pro vision; Winoground not included), scored with the board's chance correction and weights. The same rebuild gives JEV-27B-VL 71.67 against its board score of 71.53 on the same benchmarks.

	approximate public vision score	accuracy	ECE
JEV-35B	72.08	78.6 %	0.050
JEV-27B-VL (same rebuild)	71.67	78.0 %	0.044

benchmark	JEV-35B skill	JEV-27B-VL skill
CV-Bench	75.7	76.9
BLINK	55.6	56.7
RealWorldQA	68.9	72.2
CharXiv	80.7	80.7
InfographicVQA	95.0	95.9

Moderation (Hateful Memes)	47.7	38.0
R-Bench-M	28.1	30.3
MMMU-Pro vision	43.5	39.2

Overall the two models are level: the difference (+0.4) is inside the noise (paired bootstrap 95% interval −0.7 to +1.6). Only two per-benchmark differences are statistically significant (paired McNemar test, p < 0.01), both in favour of JEV-35B: moderation (+9.6) and MMMU-Pro (+4.3). The small deficits on RealWorldQA, CV-Bench, BLINK, InfographicVQA and R-Bench-M (−1 to −3) are not significant. The vision tower is Qwen3.5-35B-A3B's, unchanged; image decisions are zero-shot.

Speed

One sequential client, the same 587 rows (387 text rows sampled across the Decision Index, 200 image rows), POST /v1/decide on serve.sh (vLLM, System 1 as a LoRA), one B200:

median (p95)	text	image	all
JEV-35B	215 ms (415)	378 ms (784)	241 ms (682)
JEV-27B-VL (same benchmark)	207 ms (617)	457 ms (910)	271 ms (746)

Computer use, robot arm and games

Same demo code, seeds, scenes and opponents as the JEV-27B-VL card; every step is one System 1 decision (POST /v1/decide, thinking off), one model on one B200.

Computer use: screenshot → which element to click. A real browser (headless Chromium). Every clickable element gets a numbered box; System 1 picks the next click (or "the task is complete"), the browser clicks it, and the loop repeats.

Robot arm: pick and place from a camera image (MuJoCo). At every step System 1 answers two questions from the top camera: is the target left or right of the gripper, and above or below it? The arm halves its step whenever an answer flips.

	JEV-35B	JEV-27B-VL
Computer use, numbered boxes + element text (60 tasks: shop, settings, mail)	95%	95%
Computer use, numbered boxes only (60 tasks)	38%	10%
ms per click decision, median (6 browsers in parallel)	397	720
Robot arm, binary-decision servo (20 scenes): pick-and-place success	75%	75%
Robot arm: median distance from the cube centre when grasping	2.5 cm	2.7 cm
Robot arm: placed in the tray, once grasped	15/15	15/15
Robot arm: ms per decision, median	239	239
Robot arm, direct choice among 8 motor actions (10 scenes)	0%	0%

• Computer use with element text: 95%, the same three failures as JEV-27B-VL (shop seeds 12, 15, 20: the colour swatch carries no text and is skipped).
• Numbered boxes only (every element read from pixels): 38% against 10%. JEV-35B completes 90% of the settings tasks but only 15% of mail and 10% of shop; most failures still declare the task complete too early (24 of 37).
• Robot arm: same success rate, different scenes. Each model misses 5 of 20 grasps (both miss scenes 4 and 19), every miss 3 cm or more off the cube centre; once grasped, every cube reaches the tray.
• Choosing directly among 8 motor commands fails for both models; decompose control into simple visual questions.

Games (seed 0 for both models; board as image + text):

game	JEV-35B	JEV-27B-VL
2048: score / largest tile	336 / 32	2,080 / 128
Connect Four against a rule-based opponent (6 games)	0 wins, 6 losses	0 wins, 6 losses
Flappy Bird: pipes passed	0	3
Snake: food eaten	11	21
Quick, Draw! top-1 among 16 (320 sketches; 30% / 60% / 100% of strokes)	35.0 / 57.5 / 86.3%	41.6 / 62.2 / 87.8%
Chess mate in one, choice among 16 moves (200 Lichess puzzles)	47.0%	52.0%

For game play, use JEV-27B-VL. Over five seeds JEV-35B's largest 2048 tile averages 64 (random play: 102), it passes no Flappy Bird pipe and eats 3–18 pieces of food in Snake (mean 10). Per-episode results: reports/demos/.

Quick start (vLLM)

hf download autotrust/JEV-35B --local-dir JEV-35B
bash JEV-35B/serve.sh          # vLLM on :8000; one GPU with 80 GB or more

On a smaller GPU, use autotrust/JEV-35B-NVFP4 (one GPU with 32 GB or more; same serve.sh and API):

hf download autotrust/JEV-35B-NVFP4 --local-dir JEV-35B-NVFP4
bash JEV-35B-NVFP4/serve.sh

serve.sh runs serve_decide.py: the standard vLLM OpenAI server (same flags as vllm serve) with a POST /v1/decide route. Plain requests are System 2; requests for the LoRA module jev-decision (adapter_vllm/: backbone LoRA + the decision head as an lm_head LoRA) are System 1. Tested with a vLLM development build from September 2026.

The adapter has no LoRA on the routed experts. serve.sh sets JEV_DECIDE_NO_MOE_LORA=1 and --lora-target-modules so that the routed experts run on vLLM's normal MoE kernels (the decision head needs --max-lora-rank 320; vLLM's MoE-LoRA kernel supports at most rank 128).

System 1: POST /v1/decide

curl localhost:8000/v1/decide -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{
  "kind": "choice",
  "state": "Customer message: my card was charged twice for the same order.",
  "question": "Which team should handle this ticket?",
  "options": ["billing", "shipping", "technical support", "account security"]}'

field	value
kind	noul: yes/no, probabilities for ["false", "true"] · score: 0–5 · choice: your options
state	what the decision is about: a string, a JSON object, or a list mixing text and images
question	one question about the state
options	choice only: 2–256 strings
thinking	"off" (default)

The response has options, probabilities, choice, choice_index and usage. GET /v1/decide/info lists the defaults.

System 2

import requests
requests.post("http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions", json={
    "model": "autotrust/JEV-35B",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "In one sentence, what is safety stock?"}],
    "max_tokens": 200})

If you call /v1/completions for System 1 yourself, pass top_k: 0 and top_p: 1.0 so that the returned probabilities are not truncated.

Engine and read-out

System 1 reads the hidden state at the last token of a bare-text prompt:

[kind] choice
[state] ...
[question] ...
[options]
A) ...
B) ...
[decision]:

A 264-slot linear head (fp32) gives one logit per slot; the active slots of the question's kind are soft-maxed with a per-kind temperature (calibration.json). In vLLM the head is expressed as an lm_head LoRA (adapter_vllm/, rank 320) and the head bias is added client-side (adapter_vllm/decision_head.json).

Limitations

• System 1 only on this card: thinking (adaptive System 2) has not been evaluated for this model.
• Knowledge & Reasoning is the weak area (GPQA 0.360, MMLU-Pro 0.642, HLE below chance); JEV-27B-VL is better on GSM8K, ANLI and BBH.
• Weaker than JEV-27B-VL at sequential game play (2048, Flappy Bird, Snake).
• The vision score is our rebuild, not the board's; image decisions are zero-shot.
• English-centric; not for high-stakes decisions without confidence gating.
