Slipstream - gemma-4-E2B (EVM forecasting agent)

A small code-action agent that forecasts a project's final cost (EAC) and finish period from a mid-flight Earned Value Management snapshot. It is google/gemma-4-E2B-it (E2B (~2B effective), Gemma-4 (text decoder)) fine-tuned (LoRA, then merged) to run a single-tool reasoning loop: it writes Python that calls a curated forecasting toolkit (Earned Schedule, CPI/SPI formulas, a Gompertz growth curve, a reference-class ML regressor, and the TimesFM / Chronos time-series foundation models), reconciles their disagreeing estimates, and submits one answer.

It was distilled from a DeepSeek V4 teacher: the teacher's reasoning traces over a diverse simulated project corpus were filtered to a 367-trace SFT set (build-small-hackathon/slipstream-evm-sft) and the student trained with assistant-only loss (reasoning + tool-call tokens only). This makes a sub-5B, edge / air-gapped forecaster that matches the classical project-controls baseline and approaches its cloud teacher.

Results (held-out real projects, 40% complete, n=107)

Scored on 107 real completed projects (Batselier/OR-AS DSLIB), apples-to-apples with every baseline. valid = produced a usable forecast; EAC error = median absolute % error on final cost; finish error = median absolute error in periods.

Method	valid	EAC error	finish error
gemma-4-E2B (this model, distilled)	0.991	2.31%	0.63 periods
gemma-4-E2B (base, before distillation)	0.664	3.21%	0.75 periods
Earned Schedule (classical baseline)	1	2.37%	1 periods
DeepSeek V4 teacher (cloud)	1	2.4%	0.6 periods

Distillation lifts a base model that could barely operate the tool-call format into a reliable forecaster that rivals the classical canon and its own teacher.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

repo = "build-small-hackathon/slipstream-gemma4-e2b-evm"
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(repo)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(repo, torch_dtype="bfloat16")

The model is trained to act through a single run_python(code=...) tool call and to call submit(finish, eac) from inside that code. See the Slipstream project for the agent loop, the forecasting toolkit, and the full benchmark.
