The paper examines how evaluation design can cause significant fluctuations in the benchmark results of reasoning models, particularly the Deepseek‑R1‑Distill series. It shows that subtle changes in evaluation conditions lead to large variations in reported performance, a phenomenon also seen in other open‑source models fine‑tuned from Deepseek‑R1‑Distill and in the QwQ‑32B model. The authors call for a more rigorous evaluation paradigm and provide empirical assessments of the Deepseek‑R1‑Distill models.

arXiv:2606. 07108v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) demonstrate remarkable performance improvements by iteratively reflecting, exploring, and executing complex tasks, yet suffer from inefficiencies due to redundant reasoning, known as "overthinking".

Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on a small, high-quality set of long reasoning traces is an effective approach for eliciting strong reasoning capabilities in Large Language Models (LLMs). However, existing methods for curating high-quality SFT data rely heavily on strong reasoning models to filter examples based on diversity and difficulty, making the curation process costly while often yielding suboptimal data quality.
