  1. VinePPO: Refining Credit Assignment in RL Training of LLMs (2024 · 63 citations)
    When large language models are trained with reinforcement learning on multi-step reasoning, the reward arrives only at the end.
  2. DeepSeek-R1 Thoughtology: Let's think about LLM Reasoning (2025 · 47 citations)
    Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) produce long reasoning chains before giving an answer. Their internal behaviour has been hard to study because OpenAI's o1 hides its thoughts. DeepSeek-R1 exposes its reasoning, so the authors use it to launch a research programme they call "Thoughtology."
