Riazi-8B: An Urdu Large Language Model for Mathematical Reasoning
Recent LLMs demonstrate strong mathematical reasoning capabilities, but existing gains rely heavily on English-centric training resources and benchmarks. As a result, reasoning performance degrades substantially in low-resource languages such as Urdu, where reasoning-oriented datasets and adapted models remain scarce. Urdu lacks both reasoning-oriented resources and models adapted for multi-step mathematical problem solving, limiting the applicability of recent progress to Urdu-speaking users. We address this gap through Riazi-8B, an Urdu mathematical reasoning model developed through a two-step adaptation process comprising continued pre-training on Urdu Wikipedia and supervised fine-tun...
