OmniReasoning introduces a new benchmark, OmniReasoningBench, that requires both audio and visual evidence for answering 1,150 multiple-choice and open-ended questions across two tasks. The authors also develop OmniQA, a data engine that automatically generates evidence‑grounded QA pairs with time‑stamped clue chains, producing training datasets OmniReasoning‑SFT‑112K and OmniReasoning‑RL‑19K. Finally, they propose Modality‑Factored Self‑Distillation (MFSD), an on‑policy self‑distillation method that assigns token‑level credit by evaluating responses under modality‑specific clue contexts, enabling the OmniReasoning‑30B‑A3B model to achieve significant performance gains on both the new benchmark and existing video benchmarks.

Latent Recurrent Thoughts (LRT) proposes a method for reasoning with frozen large language models by operating in the model’s continuous representation space. A small auxiliary network generates initial latent vectors, which a tiny recurrent reasoner refines over multiple steps, decoupling computational depth from model size. Experiments on symbolic and natural‑language reasoning tasks show that LRT outperforms prior frozen‑decoder continuous‑space methods and chain‑of‑thought prompting while using far less inference compute.

arXiv:2608. 07885v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning modes of language models outperform their non-reasoning counterparts on multi-step agentic tasks, but pay a 3-6x premium in output tokens on every episode -- much of it spent re-deriving procedures that are shared across episodes of the same domain.
