InftyThink+: Effective and Efficient Infinite-Horizon Reasoning via Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2602. 06960v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large reasoning models achieve strong performance by scaling inference-time chain-of-thought, but this paradigm suffers from quadratic cost, context length limits, and degraded reasoning due to lost-in-the-middle effects.

Reconsidering Overthinking: Penalizing Internal and External Redundancy in CoT Reasoning

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.
