Fewer Tokens, Smaller Cache: Reward-Coordinated Efficient Reasoning

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel on complex tasks through long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, but their lengthy intermediate steps cause severe overthinking that inflates inference cost. KV-cache compression is a common solution, yet existing reasoning-oriented methods apply a uniform policy across the trajectory and judge compression only by what it removes from the cache.

Message Passing Enables Efficient Reasoning

arXiv:2607. 01077v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While inference-time scaling has improved the reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs), the need to generate long chains-of-thought (CoTs) is a computational bottleneck.

PI-Mem: Pushing Long-Context Reasoning to 3.6M Tokens with Parallel-Iterative Memory

arXiv:2608. 03048v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context reasoning remains a critical bottleneck for large language models, as recent recurrent-memory approaches face two inherent challenges: sequential chunk-wise updates can overwrite early critical evidence with later irrelevant content, and serial inter-chunk dependencies limit parallelism and cause latency to increase with context length.

Efficient Chain-of-Modality Reasoning via Progressive Compression for Spoken Language Models

Spoken language models (SLMs) enable natural human-computer interaction, but their reasoning ability still lags behind that of text-based large language models, especially on spoken mathematical question answering tasks. One important reason is that SLMs reason over purely verbalized mathematical expressions, which are harder to interpret than symbolic text.
