The paper introduces a neuro‑symbolic framework for scientific reasoning that separates symbolic validity and semantic groundedness. A deterministic symbolic verifier acts as a hard filter to guarantee syntactic and arithmetic correctness, while a Process Reward Model (PRM) is trained on verifier‑accepted steps to assess contextual grounding. The authors propose Counterfactual Symbolic Perturbation (CSP) to generate hard negative examples that pass the verifier but are logically flawed, enabling efficient PRM training and a verifier‑first constrained search at inference.

arXiv:2511. 09008v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models perform well at natural language interpretation and reasoning, but their lack of formal correctness guarantees limits their adoption in regulated industries like finance and health-care that operate under strict policies.

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.

Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on a small, high-quality set of long reasoning traces is an effective approach for eliciting strong reasoning capabilities in Large Language Models (LLMs). However, existing methods for curating high-quality SFT data rely heavily on strong reasoning models to filter examples based on diversity and difficulty, making the curation process costly while often yielding suboptimal data quality.
