The next generation of mobile networks is envisioned as fully AI-native, with AI-RAN architectures embedding small language models (SLMs) to perform reasoning over real-time telemetry. The state-of-th...
TelecomGPT‑R1‑9B is an open‑source large language model designed specifically for telecom reasoning tasks. It was trained on a 67,427‑example supervised fine‑tuning corpus that covers protocol, knowledge, modeling, and fault reasoning, and further refined with a two‑stage post‑training process involving low‑rank adaptation and policy optimization. The model tops the GSMA open telco leaderboard and matches state‑of‑the‑art closed‑source reasoners across seven public telecom benchmarks.

TelecomGPT‑R1 is an open‑source family of unified telecom reasoning models that address the limitations of existing telecom‑specific and general‑purpose LLMs. It is built on a four‑axis framework—protocol, knowledge, modeling, and fault—and trained on a curated corpus of 104,880 verified question‑answer pairs with chain‑of‑thought reasoning. After supervised fine‑tuning, dynamic sampling policy optimization with task‑routed rubric rewards is used to stabilize reinforcement learning across heterogeneous telecom tasks, achieving an 89.64% mean score on seven GSMA Open Telco Leaderboard benchmarks, surpassing leading proprietary models.

TRACES (Tagging Reasoning Steps for Adaptive Cost‑Efficient Early‑Stopping) is a lightweight framework that tags reasoning steps of large‑language models in real time, enabling adaptive, cost‑efficient early stopping during inference. By monitoring the types of steps generated, the method identifies when models shift their reasoning after arriving at a correct answer, allowing for interpretable stopping criteria. Experiments on mathematical reasoning benchmarks (MATH500, GSM8K, AIME) and knowledge benchmarks (MMLU, GPQA) show token reductions of 20–50% while preserving accuracy, with more conservative thresholds needed for harder tasks such as BeyondAIME and IMO AnswerBench.

arXiv:2606. 26671v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training alignment determines the reasoning and human preference following capabilities of large language models, yet most existing works withhold detailed data construction, filtering rules and training recipes, which hinders community reproducibility and lightweight model optimization.
