DeepSeek AI
DeepSeek R1
DeepSeek R1 uses a MoE architecture with 671B total parameters, 37B activated parameters. It delivers high performance in reasoning, math, and code tasks, outperforming many open-source models and competing with top proprietary models, while offering scalable open-source options.
RL-Driven Reasoning
Model uses reinforcement learning (RL) without supervised fine-tuning to develop advanced reasoning patterns, including self-verification and long CoT generation.
Cold-Start Data Incorporation
DeepSeek R1 improves model stability and reduces issues like endless repetition and language mixing by integrating cold-start data before RL stages.
Model Distillation
DeepSeek-R1 transfers reasoning capabilities from larger models into smaller ones, achieving strong performance in more compact architectures.
