Team Numina commented on the result:
"The AIMO prize is a fantastic initiative fostering
innovation in AI for mathematics. We are proud and humbled to have
won the first progress prize this year, supported by Hugging Face,
MistralAI, Answer.ai, General Catalyst and Beijing CMLR. Gathering
a unique dataset of 800k+ competitive level problems and solutions
was a key success factor and we are thrilled to release it to the
public. We now look forward to seeing far better models built upon
the Numina dataset." - Yann Fleureau, co-founder of Numina
"This collaboration between Hugging Face and Numina
underscores the power of the community and how much open science
benefits society with the release of the model, the datasets, and
the AI training scripts. I'm proud of what we accomplished together
with Numina, and it was incredibly rewarding to see their
initiative attract so many talented individuals in mathematics and
machine learning from across the world." - Lewis Tunstall, Machine Learning Engineer at
Hugging Face (Team Numina member)
The AIMO Prize and the Progress Prize
The AIMO Prize is a $10mn
challenge fund, founded and supported by XTX Markets, designed to
spur the open development of AI models that can reason
mathematically, leading to the creation of a publicly shared AI
model capable of winning a gold medal in the International
Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).
Within this, the first progress prize included problems at
intermediate-level high school mathematics competitions. The prize
was open from 1 April to 27 June
2024.
The Progress Prize will continue in 2025.
