DeepSeek open-sourced DeepSeek-R1, an LLM fine-tuned with support knowing (RL) to enhance reasoning ability. DeepSeek-R1 attains results on par with OpenAI’s o1 design on numerous criteria, including MATH-500 and SWE-bench.

DeepSeek-R1 is based upon DeepSeek-V3, a mix of experts (MoE) design just recently open-sourced by DeepSeek. This base design is fine-tuned using Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), a reasoning-oriented version of RL. The research group likewise performed understanding distillation from DeepSeek-R1 to open-source Qwen and Llama models and launched several versions of each
