The advanced reasoning function model has officially entered the Phi-4 Family. You can use Phi-4-mini-reasoning (3.8B) and Phi-4-reasoning (14B) to complete reasoning based on mathematics and simple logic scenarios for different computing power. In real scenarios, we need reasoning scenarios not only in mathematics, but also in many industry scenarios after fine tuning with CoT datasets. Next, I will use a simple data scenario in medicine as an example

In situations with limited computing, Phi-4-mini-reasoning will is an excellent model choice. We can use Microsoft Olive or Apple MLX Framework to quantize Phi-4-mini-reasoning and deploy it on edge ...
