A new research paper explores how the capacity of pre-trained models, specifically the Qwen 2.5 family, impacts their performance on causal learning tasks. The study compares two systems, CausalLLM and CausalGen, finding that larger backbone sizes can improve performance on code generation and treatment effect estimation. The research also suggests a distinction between a model's available and convertible capacity, though it notes limitations in isolating the exact contribution of post-training adaptation due to differences in dataset, architecture, and supervision between the two systems.
