The architecture of Mellum2.1 remains unchanged from its predecessor, Mellum2, but significant improvements have been made in post-training through reinforcement learning. This version emphasizes reinforcement learning as a primary training component, utilizing new tasks in math, competitive programming, science, tool use, and software engineering. The model trains in real environments for agentic skills, such as software engineering, where it operates within real repositories and is rewarded for passing tests.
Mellum2.1 Thinking demonstrates superior performance in various benchmarks compared to its predecessor and other models. It achieves high scores in coding benchmarks like LiveCodeBench v6 and HumanEval+, as well as in math benchmarks such as AIME 25/26 and GSM-Plus. The model also excels in agentic benchmarks, including SWE-bench Verified and Terminal-Bench 2.1, showcasing its enhanced capability in exploring codebases and editing files.
The model is released under the Apache 2.0 license, ensuring open-source availability. It supports serving with vLLM and is compatible with GGUF builds for llama.cpp, Ollama, and LM Studio. Mellum2.1 Thinking is ideal for developers and researchers seeking a robust tool for complex problem-solving and agentic tasks.
