Benchmark Score Model Version
MMLU (5-shot) 82.6 DeepSeek-V2
CEval (Chinese) 86.3 DeepSeek-V2
Gaokao-Bench 84.1 DeepSeek-Chat

2. Code Understanding & Generation

DeepSeek-Coder is a powerful code-specialized model, excelling in Python, JavaScript, and C++ with strong function-level completion.

Language HumanEval Pass@1 Repo-Level Task Accuracy
Python 76.8% 71.2%
JavaScript 73.5% 68.0%
C++ 69.0% 64.3%

Context Length: Up to 128K tokens — ideal for large codebase analysis.

3. Multilingual & Chinese Language Excellence

DeepSeek is optimized for Chinese NLP tasks, delivering state-of-the-art fluency, cultural awareness, and technical accuracy.

  • Chinese Fluency: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Natural, idiomatic, and context-aware
  • English Proficiency: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ — Strong, near-native in technical domains
  • ⚠️ Other Languages: Limited support (e.g., French, Spanish at basic level)

4. Long-Context Understanding (Up to 128K Tokens)

DeepSeek supports ultra-long context inputs, enabling deep document analysis, full-file code review, and long-form content generation.

  • 128K Context Window: One of the longest in open models
  • Position Interpolation (RoPE): Stable performance at full length
  • Document Summarization: Accurate across legal, technical, and academic texts

5. Inference Speed & Model Efficiency

Leveraging MoE (Mixture of Experts) architecture, DeepSeek-V2 delivers high performance with lower computational cost.

Average Latency: 1.1s (short), 3.4s (128K input)

Active Tokens/Second: ~120 (A100, batch=1)

Uptime (API): 99.6%

Overall Assessment & Conclusion

Overall Score: ⭐ 8.9 / 10

DeepSeek stands as one of the most capable open-weight large language model families, particularly dominant in Chinese-language AI applications. Its combination of strong reasoning, excellent code generation, and industry-leading 128K context support makes it a top choice for developers, researchers, and enterprises in Greater China and beyond. While multilingual coverage is still developing, its efficiency via MoE architecture and competitive benchmark performance position DeepSeek as a serious contender to global leaders like Llama 3 and Claude. Ideal for bilingual teams, code-centric workflows, and long-document processing.
