arXiv:2510. 00492v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The reliability of large language models (LLMs) during test-time scaling is often assessed with \emph{external verifiers} or \emph{reward models} that distinguish correct reasoning from flawed logic.

arXiv:2608. 09490v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Task arithmetic treats fine-tuning displacements as composable directions in weight space, yet it remains unclear when parameter addition reflects predictable changes in model function.
