Key Points
- The paper introduces InCoder-32B-Thinking, an industrial code “world model” designed to produce expert-like reasoning traces for software tasks spanning chip design, GPU optimization, and embedded systems.
- It trains on reasoning chains generated by the Error-driven Chain-of-Thought (ECoT) framework, which uses multi-turn dialogue plus environmental error feedback to explicitly model error-correction during reasoning.
- The industrial code world model (ICWM) is trained on domain execution traces (e.g., Verilog simulation and GPU profiling) to learn causal dynamics between code changes and hardware behavior.
- The system supports self-verification by predicting execution outcomes before compilation, and the synthesized reasoning traces are validated via domain toolchains to match the reasoning depth seen in real industrial tasks.
- Reported evaluations across general and industrial benchmarks show strong performance, including 81.3% on LiveCodeBench v5 and 84.0% on CAD-Coder, with results also reported for KernelBench.
