Fractured Chain-of-Thought Reasoning

arXiv:2505. 12992v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inference-time scaling techniques have significantly bolstered the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) by harnessing additional computational effort at inference without retraining.

Online Self-Weighted Fine-Tuning

Online Self-Weighted Fine‑Tuning (OSW‑FT) augments standard supervised fine‑tuning by adding online, trajectory‑level weighting: for each query the model estimates its current success rate from a small number of inference‑only rollouts and rescales the SFT loss accordingly. The method keeps the optimization direction anchored to the expert trajectory while adapting the update magnitude online, and it is shown to be unbiased for any finite rollout count with a convergence analysis. Across Qwen3 models from 0.6B to 4B, OSW‑FT consistently outperforms plain SFT on challenging benchmarks such as AIME, achieving a favorable compute‑performance trade‑off with only two online rollouts.
