  • 2024-08: Mutual Reasoning Makes Smaller LLMs Stronger Problem-Solvers (code)
    • (Microsoft) rStar is a self-play mutual reasoning approach. A small model adds to MCTS using some defined reasoning heuristics. Mutually consistent trajectories can be emphasized.
  • 2024-09: Self-Harmonized Chain of Thought
    • Produce refined chain-of-thought style solutions/prompts for diverse problems. Given a large set of problems/questions, first aggregated semantically, then apply zero-shot chain-of-thought to each problem. Then cross-pollinate between proposed solutions to similar problems, looking for refined and generalize solutions.
  • 2024-11: LLMs Do Not Think Step-by-step In Implicit Reasoning
    • They argue that models trained to reproduce CoT outputs do not, internally, perform stepwise reasoning (with intermediate representations); this suggests that explicit CoT could be superior to implicit CoT.
