Learning Modal-Mixed Chain-of-Thought Reasoning with Latent Embeddings

Yifei Shao, Kun Zhou, Ziming Xu +5

We study how to extend chain-of-thought (CoT) beyond language to better handle multimodal reasoning. While CoT helps LLMs and VLMs articulate intermediate steps, its text-only form…

Inverse Knowledge Search over Verifiable Reasoning: Synthesizing a Scientific Encyclopedia from a Long Chains-of-Thought Knowledge Base

Yu Li, Yuan Huang, Tao Wang +19

Most scientific materials compress reasoning, presenting conclusions while omitting the derivational chains that justify them. This compression hinders verification by lacking expl…

Logical Structure as Knowledge: Enhancing LLM Reasoning via Structured Logical Knowledge Density Estimation

Zhen Bi, Zhenlin Hu, Xueshu Chen +7

The reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly attributed to training data quality rather than mere parameter scaling. However, existing data-centric p…

Dynamic Rewarding with Prompt Optimization Enables Tuning-free Self-Alignment of Language Models

Somanshu Singla, Zhen Wang, Tianyang Liu +3

Aligning Large Language Models (LLMs) traditionally relies on costly training and human preference annotations. Self-alignment seeks to reduce these expenses by enabling models to…
