Consolidating Reasoning with Test-Time Training

The paper introduces TTT‑Consolidate, a framework that leverages multi‑agent reasoning trajectories as adaptation data to improve subsequent reasoning. It consolidates these trajectories into parametric representations via test‑time training and then generates a new solution conditioned on the consolidated information, with meta‑learning used to optimize the consolidation process. Using the newly created OpenParallelThinking corpus of 12,810 math problems and trajectories from six LLMs, TTT‑Consolidate outperforms existing aggregation baselines by up to 20 percentage points on challenging math and STEM benchmarks, especially as model size grows.

Balancing Reference Guidance and Free Generation in Trajectory Rollouts for Reasoning RL

The paper introduces Adaptive Reference Guidance (ARG), a method that balances using a verified reference solution with free generation in trajectory rollouts for reasoning reinforcement learning. ARG selects a prefix of the reference to guide the model, continuing from it only if the resulting trajectory passes verification, otherwise falling back to the reference. Experiments on Qwen3-4B and Qwen3-8B across five mathematical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that ARG achieves the highest aggregate pass@12 while maintaining competitive average sampled accuracy.

Chopthin-Consensus Power Sampling: A Diversity-Preserving Approach to LLM Decoding

Chopthin-Consensus Power Sampling (CCPS) is a new inference-time decoding method for large language models that uses the Chopthin resampler to preserve diversity among particle trajectories. By enforcing an upper bound on weight ratios instead of equal-weight resampling, CCPS maintains a richer set of distinct reasoning paths and guarantees a lower bound on effective sample size. Coupled with a semantic-majority selection mechanism, CCPS achieves higher oracle coverage and matches or surpasses baseline accuracy on multiple reasoning benchmarks.

Difficulty-Adaptive Tree-Structured Policy Optimization for Expanding Reasoning Coverage in RLVR

The paper introduces DATPO, a Difficulty‑Adaptive Sentence‑entropy‑guided Tree‑structured Policy Optimization method designed to improve reasoning coverage in Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR). It builds on three design principles: adaptive difficulty rollouts, tree‑based rollouts, and sentence‑entropy‑guided forking to enhance semantic diversity. Experiments on mathematical reasoning benchmarks show that DATPO outperforms existing baselines, particularly in pass@k, leading to better test‑time scaling performance.
