Polaris-4B-Preview-F32-GGUF

Polaris is an open-source post-training method that uses reinforcement learning (RL) scaling to refine and enhance models with advanced reasoning abilities. Our research shows that even top-tier models like Qwen3-4B can achieve significant improvements on challenging reasoning tasks when optimized with Polaris. By leveraging open-source data and academic-level resources, Polaris pushes the capabilities of open-recipe reasoning models to unprecedented heights. In benchmark tests, our method even surpasses top commercial systems, including Claude-4-Opus, Grok-3-Beta, and o3-mini-high .
