Code Showcase

Project: Custom Reasoning SFT Layer Platform for Open-Source Models
  • Designed and developed a platform enabling users to train a custom Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) layer on top of open-source models (e.g., LLaMA) to transform them into O1-type models with enhanced reasoning capabilities.

  • Leveraged Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) techniques to efficiently train and integrate the additional reasoning layer into existing open-source models.

  • Optimized model performance by fine-tuning hyperparameters and ensuring seamless integration of the SFT layer with the base models.

  • Demonstrated the platform's effectiveness by improving model reasoning and decision-making capabilities, making it suitable for complex problem-solving tasks.
