Description
INFUSER is an iterative co-training framework that enables foundation model agents to autonomously discover and practice reasoning skills from unstructured documents. It co-evolves two roles:
- Generator: Reads unstructured documents and drafts reasoning questions with reference answers.
- Solver: Learns to answer these questions through reinforcement learning, guided by an optimizer-aware influence score that measures how much a question actually improves the solver's target distribution.
This specific checkpoint uses a hybrid training recipe combining science documents with Putnam/AIME-style RLVR math data.

The repository root is intentionally flattened so the tokenizer files, config files, and model shard files are available directly at the top level for standard transformers loading.
