DeepSeek open-sourced DeepSeek-R1, an LLM fine-tuned with reinforcement knowing (RL) to improve thinking ability. DeepSeek-R1 attains results on par with OpenAI's o1 model on numerous standards, including MATH-500 and SWE-bench.

DeepSeek-R1 is based on DeepSeek-V3, a mixture of specialists (MoE) model recently open-sourced by DeepSeek. This base model is fine-tuned using Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), a reasoning-oriented variant of RL. The research study group also performed understanding distillation from DeepSeek-R1 to open-source Qwen and bytes-the-dust.com Llama designs and released several variations of each
