However, current reasoning research is scattered across independent projects, using different datasets, prompt strategies, and evaluation settings, making direct comparisons difficult. NVIDIA launched this challenge to establish a shared benchmark environment and a unified baseline model, allowing technologies to be tested and compared under consistent conditions. ## Core of the Challenge: Objectives and Technical Paths ### Core Objectives Participants need to develop solutions to improve reasoning accuracy, evaluated on the new reasoning benchmark based on the Nemotron 3 Nano baseline. ### Technical Routes Explore paths such as prompt strategy optimization, data filtering and organization, synthetic data generation, reinforcement learning, LoRA lightweight fine-tuning, etc. ## Evaluation Mechanism: Unified Standards Ensure Fairness ### Base Model Based on Nemotron-3-Nano-30B with LoRA adapters loaded (must include adapter_config.json). ### Inference Engine Use the vLLM high-performance inference engine. ### Answer Extraction Prioritize extracting answers from `\boxed{}`, if none, fall back to heuristics or the last numerical value. ### Scoring Criteria Predictions that exactly match the standard answer or are within the tolerance range are considered correct; scores are calculated based on the proportion of correct answers. ## Community Value: Promoting Reproducibility and Collaboration ### Reproducibility Clear documentation (notebooks + reports) is a necessary condition for winning, supporting research reproducibility. ### Collaborative Iteration The open environment allows reusing and extending others' work, forming a positive cycle. ### Open Workflow Nemotron provides public models, datasets, and recipes, allowing participants to build and adjust freely. ## Participation Guide: From Baseline to Documentation Recommended participation path: 1. Familiarize yourself with the features of Nemotron-3-Nano-30B 2. Start with prompt engineering and explore advanced technologies 3. Use LoRA for rapid iteration to verify ideas 4. Record experimental processes and results in detail ## Conclusion: Advancing Open-ended Reasoning Research The challenge provides a unified experimental field for reasoning research, open to both experts and researchers. Participants' contributions will be accumulated into reusable community knowledge, driving the development of AI open-ended research.
