Session
This talk explores chain-of-thought reasoning, a fine-tuning technique to enhance the logical reasoning capabilities of SLMs like LLaMA (1B/3B parameters). Attendees will learn the full process—from dataset preparation to fine-tuning and evaluation—demonstrating how smaller models can deliver interpretable, step-by-step responses with minimal resources.
Key Takeaways
- Fine-tune small language model for better reasoning and interpretability.
- Practical insights on datasets, training, and hardware.
- Apply scalable techniques to open-source SLMs.
Target Audience
AI&ML engineers, data scientists, and researchers seeking to enhance reasoning in small-scale models with practical, resource-efficient methods.
Why Attend
Learn actionable techniques to make SLMs smarter, more interpretable, and accessible for real-world applications.
