RING: Retrieval-Internalized Generation for Continual Large-Scale Knowledge Injection

Shicheng Xu, Liang Pang, Liyi Chen +7

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) improves factuality but adds latency and engineering overhead at serving time. We propose RING (Retrieval-Internalized Generation), a holistic…

Dynamic Rollout Editing for Reducing Overthinking in RL-Trained Reasoning Models

Zihao Wei, Wenjie Shi, Liang Pang +8

Long-form chain-of-thought reasoning can improve LLM performance on complex tasks, but models often continue generating unnecessary reasoning after a correct answer has emerged. We…

LLM Latent Reasoning as Chain of Superposition

Jingcheng Deng, Liang Pang, Zihao Wei +6

Latent reasoning offers a computation-efficient alternative to Chain-of-Thought but often suffers from performance degradation due to distributional misalignment and ambiguous chai…

The Evolution of Thought: Tracking LLM Overthinking via Reasoning Dynamics Analysis

Zihao Wei, Liang Pang, Jiahao Liu +7

Test-time scaling via explicit reasoning trajectories significantly boosts large language model (LLM) performance but often triggers overthinking. To explore this, we analyze reaso…

RLKD: Distilling LLMs' Reasoning via Reinforcement Learning

Shicheng Xu, Liang Pang, Yunchang Zhu +6

Distilling reasoning paths from teacher to student models via supervised fine-tuning (SFT) provides a shortcut for improving the reasoning ability of smaller Large Language Models…

A Theory for Token-Level Harmonization in Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Shicheng Xu, Liang Pang, Huawei Shen +1

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) utilizes retrieved texts to enhance large language models (LLMs). Studies show that while RAG provides valuable external information (benefit),…

Unsupervised Information Refinement Training of Large Language Models for Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Shicheng Xu, Liang Pang, Mo Yu +4

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances large language models (LLMs) by incorporating additional information from retrieval. However, studies have shown that LLMs still face…

Search-in-the-Chain: Interactively Enhancing Large Language Models with Search for Knowledge-intensive Tasks

Shicheng Xu, Liang Pang, Huawei Shen +2

Making the content generated by Large Language Model (LLM), accurate, credible and traceable is crucial, especially in complex knowledge-intensive tasks that require multi-step rea…
