Tiny Recursive Model Outperforms Large Language Models on Complex Reasoning Tasks

Summary

Researchers propose Tiny Recursive Model (TRM), a simplified recursive reasoning approach that outperforms both the existing Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) and large language models on complex puzzle tasks like Sudoku, Maze, and ARC-AGI. TRM achieves superior generalization using only a single tiny network with 2 layers and 7M parameters, obtaining 45% test accuracy on ARC-AGI-1 and 8% on ARC-AGI-2 - higher than most LLMs while using less than 0.01% of their parameters.

HRM holds great promise for solving hard problems with small networks, but it is not yet well understood and may be suboptimal.
We propose Tiny Recursive Model (TRM), a much simpler recursive reasoning approach that achieves significantly higher generalization than HRM.
With only 7M parameters, TRM obtains 45% test-accuracy on ARC-AGI-1 and 8% on ARC-AGI-2, higher than most LLMs.
TRM achieves these results with less than 0.01% of the parameters used by large language models.

Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) is a novel approach using two small neural networks recursing at different frequencies. This biologically inspired method beats Large Language models (LLMs) on hard puzzle tasks such as Sudoku, Maze, and ARC-AGI while tr
