arXiv:2607. 11266v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has significantly advanced the reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), yet it often incurs substantial computational costs due to over-reasoning: the generation of redundant, verbose, or irrelevant steps.
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.

arXiv:2508. 02178v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large reasoning models (LRMs) often exhibit overthinking, producing verbose Chain-of-Thought (CoT) traces that increase inference cost and obscure the underlying reasoning process.
arXiv:2510. 13940v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent progress in large language models (LLMs) has focused on test-time scaling to improve reasoning via increased inference computation, but often at the cost of efficiency.
arXiv:2606. 00206v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) is widely used to deploy large language models efficiently, but its effect on reasoning models is not well understood.
The paper investigates how training large language models to use fewer tokens in chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning impacts the faithfulness and monitorability of the generated explanations. Three efficiency methods—fixed generation budget, per-example length target, and group-relative length reward—were applied during fine‑tuning, and the resulting models were evaluated on how well their CoT reflects decision processes and whether it signals changes due to input interventions. Results show that while faithfulness generally decreases because models become less consistent, monitorability remains relatively robust, with models still indicating the influence of input changes even when CoT is shortened.

arXiv:2608. 20256v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning language models trained with reinforcement learning typically operate under a fixed token budget rather than an explicitly adaptive one, which can lead to over-computation on easy problems and insufficient computation on difficult ones.
