About CHIMERA

CHIMERA is a compact synthetic reasoning dataset of 9,225 problems spanning 8 scientific disciplines and 1,179 fine-grained topics, each paired with a long Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning trajectory. All problems are generated, validated and solved by LLMs without human annotation. Despite its modest size, post-training Qwen3-4B-Thinking-2507 on CHIMERA approaches or matches the reasoning performance of substantially larger models such as DeepSeek-R1 and Qwen3-235B.
