Know Thy Reasoner: Not All Language Models Explore Alike

arXiv:2604. 10827v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Compute scaling for LLM reasoning trades off exploring solution approaches (\emph{breadth}) against refining promising ones (\emph{depth}), yet why a given trade-off works, and why it often fails to transfer across models, remains unclear.

Schema-Anchored Latent Reasoning for Semantic Parsing-Based Knowledge Base Question Answering

The paper introduces SALR, a schema‑anchored latent reasoning approach for generating logical forms in knowledge‑base question answering. SALR delays explicit schema commitments by generating continuous thoughts in hidden states and aligns these thoughts with a codebook of KB schema elements, guided by an alignment objective derived from gold logical forms. Experiments on GrailQA and WebQSP demonstrate that SALR consistently outperforms strong baselines, notably improving compositional question performance by 2.86 F1 points over TIARA.

InternBootcamp: Boosting LLM Reasoning with Verifiable Task Scaling

InternBootcamp is an open‑source framework that offers over 1,000 domain‑diverse task environments for large language model (LLM) reasoning research. It introduces Bootcamp‑Eval, an automatically generated benchmark for comprehensive performance assessment. Experiments show that training on InternBootcamp significantly improves reasoning performance, with a 32B model achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on Bootcamp‑Eval and other established benchmarks, demonstrating that scaling the number of training tasks yields consistent gains.

Improving Math Reasoning through Value-guided Informative Search

The paper introduces APIVIS, a training-time framework that integrates finite-budget Gumbel search into reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) for mathematical reasoning. APIVIS combines direct and searched responses within each rollout group, uses selective supervision on search-improved tokens, and applies value-guided selection to improve verifier rewards at each searched state. Experiments on standard mathematical reasoning benchmarks and various model scales show significant performance gains over existing search-based methods.
