- b345 2mo agoI've been using Qwen3.5-9B, hosted locally for PDF data extraction and it performs pretty well when extracting data from tables and infographics
- SkalskiP 2mo agoHi, I’m the author of this blog. It depends on how strong of a model you need, but in general, Qwen is easily the best among the Chinese models right now. Over the last two weeks, Qwen released two new models. Qwen3.8-Max is totally insane, but it’s only available through the Alibaba Cloud API. I wrote a similar blog covering Qwen3.8-Max: [https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/ https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/](https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/ https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/) If you’re looking for something you can run locally, Qwen3.8-27B might be a great option. On Friday, I did a quick comparison between Qwen3.8-Max and Qwen3.8-27B: [https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20 https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20](https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20 https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20)
- kanemcgrath 2mo agoGoogles local gemma models which target roughly the same parameter count range, are known for being a lot better at vision tasks than qwen, no idea if 3.8 has changed that though
- SkalskiP 2mo agoReally? Gemma4-31B should be better than Qwen3.8-27B? I'm happy to test that.
