Inside DeepSeek-R1 & V3: Mixture-of-Experts and Open Reasoning Models
By Sayyed Abrar Akhtar • Published 2025-02-23
How DeepSeek achieved frontier model performance with innovative MoE architectures and RL training.
DeepSeek-R1 demonstrated that open weights models can match top proprietary reasoning engines. By utilizing **Mixture-of-Experts (MoE)**, Multi-head Latent Attention (MLA), and pure Reinforcement Learning (RL) without heavy SFT initial phases, inference costs plummeted.
