Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated prowess in a wide range of tasks. However, many LLMs exhibit significant performance discrepancies between high- and low-resource languages. To mitigate this challenge, we present FuxiTranyu, an open-source multilingual LLM, which is designed to satisfy the need of the research community for balanced and high-performing multilingual capabilities. The base model, FuxiTranyu-8B, features 8 billion parameters and is trained from scratch on meticulously balanced multilingual data that contains 600 billion tokens covering 43 natural languages and 16 programming languages. We also develop two instruction-tuned models: FuxiTranyu-8B-SFT which is fine-tuned on a diverse multilingual instruction dataset, and FuxiTranyu-8B-DPO which is further refined with DPO on a preference dataset for enhanced alignment ability. Extensive experiments on a wide range of multilingual benchmarks demonstrate the competitive performance of FuxiTranyu against existing multilingual LLMs, e.g., BLOOM-7B, PolyLM-13B, and Mistral-7B-Instruct. Both neuron and representation interpretability analyses reveal that FuxiTranyu achieves consistent multilingual representations across languages. To promote further research into multilingual LLMs, we release both the base and instruction-tuned FuxiTranyu models together with 58 pre-training checkpoints at HuggingFace (see https://huggingface.co/TJUNLP/FuxiTranyu-8B) and Github (see https://github.com/tjunlp-lab/FuxiTranyu).

Large language models have achieved remarkable progress across many languages. However, Tibetan, as a representative low-resource language, is particularly underrepresented in existing models due to the scarcity of high-quality training corpora. To address this gap, we curate the largest Tibetan pre-training corpus to date, aggregating data from diverse sources and applying a dedicated data cleaning and processing pipeline tailored for Tibetan. With the curated data, we continue pre/post-training a multilingual base model to enhance its generative capabilities in Tibetan. To evaluate the Tibetan capabilities of the model, we create new high-quality Tibetan benchmarks, and complement them with existing public benchmarks. Experimental results demonstrate that our model consistently and significantly outperforms both open-source models of similar scale and Tibetan-tailored models across a wide range of tasks.

With the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs), a large number of benchmarks have been proposed. However, most benchmarks lack unified evaluation standard and require the manual implementation of custom scripts, making results hard to ensure consistency and reproducibility. Furthermore, mainstream evaluation frameworks are centralized, with datasets and answers, which increases the risk of benchmark leakage. To address these issues, we propose a Decentralized Evaluation Protocol (DEP), a decentralized yet unified and standardized evaluation framework through a matching server without constraining benchmarks. The server can be mounted locally or deployed remotely, and once adapted, it can be reused over the long term. By decoupling users, LLMs, and benchmarks, DEP enables modular, plug-and-play evaluation: benchmark files and evaluation logic stay exclusively on the server side. In remote setting, users cannot access the ground truth, thereby achieving data isolation and leak-proof evaluation. To facilitate practical adoption, we develop DEP Toolkit, a protocol-compatible toolkit that supports features such as breakpoint resume, concurrent requests, and congestion control. We also provide detailed documentation for adapting new benchmarks to DEP. Using DEP toolkit, we evaluate multiple LLMs across benchmarks. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of DEP and show that it reduces the cost of deploying benchmark evaluations. As of February 2026, we have adapted over 60 benchmarks and continue to promote community co-construction to support unified evaluation across various tasks and domains.
