DeepTool: Scaling Interleaved Deliberation in Tool-Integrated Reasoning via Process-Supervised Reinforcement Learning

Yang He, Xiao Ding, Bibo Cai +5

Tool-Integrated Reasoning (TIR) extends LLM capabilities by leveraging external environments. However, existing methods lack the deliberation during sequential tool invocation requ…

Easier to Judge than to Find: Predicting In-Context Learning Success for Demonstration Selection

Haochun Wang, Chaofen Yang, Jiatong Liu +5

In-context learning (ICL) is highly sensitive to which demonstrations appear in the prompt, but selecting them is expensive because the space of possible demonstration contexts and…
