qwen_limopro_output

This model is a fine-tuned version of Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct on the acereason_limopro_15k dataset.

Model description

Qwen-LIMOPro-Output builds on Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct, a general-purpose instruction-following model.
Through supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on the AceReason-LIMOPro subset, the model was optimized to improve mathematical and logical reasoning.

The subset emphasizes:

• Challenging problems (high reasoning complexity)
• Unfamiliar examples (low similarity to base model’s prior knowledge)
• Diverse coverage across topics (via K-means clustering of embeddings)

This approach helps strengthen reasoning depth while minimizing overfitting and catastrophic forgetting often seen in small-scale SFT.

Intended uses & limitations

Use Cases

• Step-by-step mathematical reasoning
• Problem-solving and scientific question answering
• Educational or research applications for reasoning-focused LLMs

Limitations

• Not suitable for general open-domain QA or creative text generation (model over-specialized toward reasoning tasks)
• Some degradation observed on general benchmarks (e.g., MMLU)
• May over-explain or generate verbose reasoning chains for simple prompts

Training and evaluation data

• Training Dataset: apoorva2311/TML-limopro

  • 15K examples sampled from AceReason-1.1-SFT (100K total)
  • Selected via difficulty and model familiarity scoring
  • Ensures high reasoning quality and topic diversity

• Evaluation Benchmarks:

  • AIME24 / AIME25
  • MATH-500
  • GPQA-Diamond
  • LiveCodeBench (LCB)
  • MMLU-Redux-2

Hyperparameters

---

• The model exhibits stronger structured reasoning and clearer intermediate step articulation.
• Slightly reduced performance on broad factual tasks (trade-off for reasoning specialization).
• Fine-tuning on the LIMOPro-selected subset led to smoother loss curves and better convergence stability compared to random sampling.
