complex inference

Microsoft today announced Phi-4, a 14B-parameter "state-of-the-art" small language model (SLM) that specializes in complex reasoning in areas such as mathematics, in addition to traditional language processing. Phi-4 is the latest addition to the Phi family of small language models, and officials say it demonstrates Microsoft's commitment to continue exploring the boundaries of SLMs. Possibilities. Officials say Phi-4 outperforms comparable and larger models in mathematical reasoning thanks to a number of technological advances, including the use of high-quality synthetic datasets, carefully selected high-quality organic data, and post-training innovations. Its mathematical ...
