Trained on a small model with only 2 billion parameters, R1-V shows that effective training methodology can lead to superior performance without extensive computational resources. The model achieved robust visual counting abilities and was trained on CLEVR-70k and R1-Distilled Visual Reasoning datasets. R1-V emphasizes efficient training methods and makes its code, model weights, datasets, and training scripts publicly available to support open-source AI research. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
