SmolLM2-Rethink-135M-GGUF

SmolLM2-Rethink-135M is an experimental lightweight model trained on the Celestia3-DeepSeek-R1-0528 reasoning dataset. Based on the SmolLM2-135M-Instruct architecture, this model is specifically optimized for reasoning, structured outputs, and efficient small-scale deployment. Despite its compact size (135M parameters), it demonstrates strong capabilities in logical deduction, conversational coherence, and lightweight inference tasks.
