What this is

LoRA fine-tune of DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B for paraphrasing. The model keeps its chain-of-thought during training, so it reasons before producing a paraphrase.

How it works

Built a multi-domain training set: literary fiction, technical docs (React, TensorFlow), academic papers, and news. Generated gold paraphrases with OpenAI as SFT targets. Trained with LoRA to keep the parameter count small.

Results

BERTScore 0.9521, BLEU diversity 0.5135, edit distance 0.3439, syntactic diversity 0.1472, harmonic 0.4684. Beats BART and T5 on the same eval set.
