https://huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM5-2B#highlightsHighlights

We are releasingMiniCPM5-2B, the second model in theMiniCPM5series, followingMiniCPM5-1B. It is a dense 2B Transformer that scales up the same training recipe, built for on-device, local deployment, and resource-constrained scenarios, reaching 2B-class open-source SOTA.

🏆2B-class open-source SOTA: compared with strong open-source models of similar size, MiniCPM5-2B achieves SOTA performance within this comparison set. It remains competitive with 4B-class models overall, while showing its advantages over models of comparable size in coding, mathematics, long-context understanding, tool use, and agentic tasks.

📂Open High-Quality Data: Alongside the model, we are releasing the high-quality training datasets behind it as part of theUltraDatafamily:UltraX, a high-quality web pre-training dataset;UltraData-Code, featuring L0–L3 tiered code data management to drive a significant leap in coding capabilities;UltraData-SFT-Agent-2609, comprising 500K agent training samples to enhance comprehensive on-device agent capabilities; andUltraData-RL-2609, with 80K+ high-quality RL training samples covering mathematics, code, general knowledge, and long-context reasoning.

https://huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM5-2B#training-recipeTraining Recipe

The training of MiniCPM5-2B is a full-stack practice of**UltraData Tiered Data Management**, covering three stages: base training, mid-training, and post-training.

Duringbase training, the model goes through stable training and decay training to build core language capability and training stability. It then entersmid-trainingto further strengthen target capabilities and adapt to the target data distribution. The training corpus is released alongside the model asUltra-FineWeb,Ultra-FineWeb-L3,UltraX,UltraData-CodeandUltraData-Math.

Duringpost-training, we proceed in three steps:SFT,RL, andOPD. We first use400B tokens of deep-thinking SFTto establish deep-thinking and general chat abilities; the SFT data is released asUltraData-SFT-2605and the Agent SFT data is released asUltraData-SFT-Agent-2609. We then train specializedRL teachersfor math, code, agentic tasks, writing, and related domains (with the corresponding data also open-sourced asUltraData-RL-2609), and use**On-Policy Distillation (OPD)**to distill these teachers back into one release model.

MiniCPM5-2B Training Recipe

https://huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM5-2B#what-does-rl–opd-bringWhat does RL + OPD bring?

RL + OPDis a key part of MiniCPM5-2B post-training. During theRLstage, we adopted the critic-based algorithm described inJustRL II, substantially improving training stability and achieving significant gains across multiple domains. On the benchmarks listed below, RL + OPD improves reasoning and general capabilities by an average of**↑10.96 points**, and agentic capabilities by**↑6.96 points**.

OPDmerges the capabilities of 16 expert models produced by RL training, including 5 agentic expert models. At each response position, we compute the full-vocabulary reverse KL divergence between student and teacher logits as the advantage estimate, replacing the original verification-based advantage. OPD directly reuses the prompts used to train each RL teacher as distillation data, so no additional corpus construction is required.

In addition to the deployment and fine-tuning frameworks listed above, MiniCPM5-2B is also supported by FlagOS for multi-chip deployment.

https://huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM5-2B#flagos-overviewFlagOS Overview

To enable large-scale deployment across different AI chips, Beijing Zhiyuan Research Institute, together with numerous research institutions, chip manufacturers, system vendors, and algorithm and software organizations both domestically and internationally, jointly initiated and established the FlagOS Open Source Community.

The FlagOS community is dedicated to building a unified, open-source system software stack for various AI chips, encompassing core open-source projects such as a large-scale operator library, a unified AI compiler, parallel training and inference frameworks, and a unified communication library. It aims to create an open technology ecosystem connecting the “model-system-chip” layers. By enabling “develop once, deploy across chips”, FlagOS unlocks the computational potential of hardware, breaks down the ecosystem silos between different chip software stacks, and effectively reduces migration costs for developers.The FlagOS community fosters an AI hardware and software ecosystem, overcomes single-vendor closed-source monopolies, promotes widespread deployment of AI hardware technologies, and is committed to rooted in China while embracing global collaboration.
