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.
