arXiv:2607. 15178v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer reasoning is limited by autoregressive decoding, which repeat edly compresses rich hidden computation through token space and makes it difficult for intermediate reasoning states to persist across time.
arXiv:2607. 25915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Complex structured reasoning tasks often require additional computation, yet current language models obtain it mainly by increasing parameter scale or by serializing intermediate steps as chain-of-thought (CoT) tokens.
arXiv:2607. 00341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models achieve strong performance on many reasoning tasks when allowed to externalize intermediate steps as Chain-of-Thought (CoT).
arXiv:2607. 19405v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The CoTFormer architecture formalizes Chain-of-Thought as a form of recurrent latent computation, preserving intermediate states as attendable representations to mimic explicit reasoning traces.
arXiv:2606. 31779v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models typically reason via explicit chain-of-thought (CoT), generating intermediate steps token-by-token.
arXiv:2608. 08113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has become the dominant paradigm for eliciting reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs), yet it creates substantial computational overhead by forcing models to externalize intermediate reasoning steps as discrete tokens.

T-LoopFormer introduces token-level elastic-depth looped transformers that allow each token to decide its own number of loop iterations based on its hidden state, improving token generation accuracy. It also adds a recursion-wise key‑value cache so tokens at different depths only attend to their corresponding cached states, speeding up autoregressive decoding. Experiments demonstrate strong performance on language modeling and zero‑shot reasoning, achieving the lowest decoding latency among comparable models.

arXiv:2604. 11912v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While next-token prediction (NTP) has been the standard objective for training language models, it often struggles to capture global structure in reasoning tasks.
