LIMO is a research project and training framework demonstrating that large language models can achieve strong mathematical reasoning with only a small set of high-quality training samples. It releases fine-tuned Qwen2.5-32B models, curated reasoning datasets, and training/evaluation code.

Use cases

  • fine-tune an LLM for math reasoning with minimal data
  • train a reasoning model on curated chain-of-thought samples
  • evaluate LLMs on AIME and MATH benchmarks
  • improve model generalization in mathematical problem solving
  • reproduce the LIMO less-is-more reasoning results

When to choose

  • you want SOTA math reasoning via small high-quality SFT datasets
  • you need training and evaluation code for reasoning fine-tuning research
  • you want ready-made reasoning models and datasets on Hugging Face

When to avoid

  • you need a production inference server rather than training research code
  • you lack GPU resources for 32B model fine-tuning
  • you need a permissively licensed codebase - no license is specified
