Inference-Time Rethinking with Latent Thought Vectors for Math Reasoning
Deqian Kong, Minglu Zhao, Aoyang Qin +10
Standard chain-of-thought reasoning generates a solution in a single forward pass, committing irrevocably to each token and lacking a mechanism to recover from early errors. We int…

Latent Thought Models with Variational Bayes Inference-Time Computation
Deqian Kong, Minglu Zhao, Dehong Xu +8
We propose a novel class of language models, Latent Thought Models (LTMs), which incorporate explicit latent thought vectors that follow an explicit prior model in latent space. Th…

Latent Plan Transformer for Trajectory Abstraction: Planning as Latent Space Inference
Deqian Kong, Dehong Xu, Minglu Zhao +6
In tasks aiming for long-term returns, planning becomes essential. We study generative modeling for planning with datasets repurposed from offline reinforcement learning. Specifica…
