LatentMT: Machine Translation with Latent Reasoning

Wei-Rui Chen, Samar M. Magdy, Chiyu Zhang +3

Latent-reasoning looped language models (LoopLMs) offer a different scaling path for machine translation (MT): instead of increasing parameter count or emitting explicit chain-of-t…

Distilling the Essence: Efficient Reasoning Distillation via Sequence Truncation

Wei-Rui Chen, Vignesh Kothapalli, Ata Fatahibaarzi +5

Distilling the capabilities from a large reasoning model (LRM) to a smaller student model often involves training on substantial amounts of reasoning data. However, knowledge disti…

Reflection Pretraining Enables Token-Level Self-Correction in Biological Sequence Models

Xiang Zhang, Jiaqi Wei, Yuejin Yang +8

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has significantly advanced task-solving capabilities in natural language processing with large language models. Unlike standard prompting, CoT enco…

Unifying Tree Search Algorithm and Reward Design for LLM Reasoning: A Survey

Jiaqi Wei, Xiang Zhang, Yuejin Yang +10

Deliberative tree search is a cornerstone of modern Large Language Model (LLM) research, driving the pivot from brute-force scaling toward algorithmic efficiency. This single parad…
