DeepSeek Coder v2 Lite Base — Benchmarks

Benchmark scores for DeepSeek Coder v2 Lite Base aggregated from public leaderboards (5 boards), with how it ranks among open models and how it compares with its nearest neighbours. See hardware requirements for what you need to run it.

No llmrun Composite Score for DeepSeek Coder v2 Lite Base: the score is only published for a model measured on at least 4 of the boards in the score panel, spanning at least 2 benchmark categories and including a reasoning or coding board — or on 3 boards that narrow its score to a 90% range of at most 15.6 points. Either way the results must come from at least two different benchmarks. Its individual scores below stand on their own — see how the llmrun Composite Score gets calculated.

DeepSeek Coder v2 Lite Base reasoning benchmarks

Multi-step logic and problem-solving — can the model think through a hard problem rather than recall an answer.

WinoGrande
WinoGrande is a large-scale commonsense-reasoning test built around pronoun resolution: the model must pick which of two nouns a pronoun refers to in a sentence, using real-world knowledge to disambiguate. It was designed by AI2 to resist the shortcuts that let earlier models game its predecessor, Winograd.

DeepSeek Coder v2 Lite Base math benchmarks

Symbolic and quantitative problem-solving, from competition math to multi-step calculation.

GSM8K
GSM8K is a classic set of grade-school math word problems requiring several arithmetic reasoning steps. Long a default sanity check for reasoning, top models now score near the ceiling, so it best separates smaller models.
