arXiv:2508. 10971v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge graphs (KGs) can be enhanced through rule mining; however, the resulting logical rules are often difficult for humans to interpret due to their inherent complexity and the idiosyncratic labeling conventions of individual KGs.

The paper introduces SOLID, a framework that enables operations research language models to self-improve without relying on verified answers or external evaluators. SOLID uses solver-generated artifacts from the model’s own rollouts to create pseudo-references, clustering objectives and applying group-relative advantages for dense self-supervision. Experiments on multiple OR benchmarks show that SOLID enhances solution accuracy for both general-purpose and OR-tuned models compared to outcome-only training.

Prompt2Skill is an unsupervised framework that constructs skills for Large Language Models directly from natural‑language task descriptions. It automatically derives task specifications, discovers or synthesizes datasets, and refines the skill through a reflective editing loop. In experiments across question answering, reading comprehension, spreadsheet manipulation, and mathematical reasoning, Prompt2Skill outperforms direct prompting, improving performance by an average of 10.8 points on both open‑source and frontier models.

Natural language understanding often depends on meanings that are implied rather than explicitly stated, requiring pragmatic reasoning. Despite strong performance on math and logical reasoning, large language models (LLMs) still struggle with making pragmatic inferences, often choosing literal interpretations.
QVAC Genesis III is a 191.43 B‑token synthetic STEM corpus covering 19 domains and multiple difficulty levels, created through a dual generation strategy that uses a weak edge‑scale student model to generate corrective explanations and contrastive reasoning. The authors evaluate the corpus with an LLM‑as‑a‑parser protocol and demonstrate that 1.7 B‑parameter models trained on QVAC Genesis III outperform those trained on Cosmopedia‑v2 and the Cosmo‑1B model on ARC, GPQA Diamond, and MMLU STEM benchmarks, achieving up to +28.57% improvement on ARC‑E and a 99.45% valid answer rate.

arXiv:2601. 22146v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Due to limited supervised training data, large language models (LLMs) are typically pre-trained via a self-supervised "predict the next word" objective on a vast amount of unstructured text data.
