The official repository accompanying the survey paper 'A Survey of Large Language Models', collecting papers and resources on LLMs including pre-training, instruction tuning, RLHF, and chain-of-thought reasoning. It also offers a Chinese introductory book and is regularly updated with new content such as long CoT reasoning.

Use cases

• learn about large language models from scratch
• find a survey of LLM pre-training and alignment techniques
• understand RLHF and instruction tuning
• get an overview of chain-of-thought and long CoT reasoning
• find papers on in-context learning
• introductory book to get started with LLMs

When to choose

• you want a comprehensive, curated reading list and roadmap for LLM research
• you are a student or researcher entering the LLM field
• you need a citable survey covering LLMs up to recent reasoning models

When to avoid

• you need runnable LLM software or training code
• you want a hands-on tutorial with code exercises rather than a paper collection
