  1. Chain-of-Reasoning: Towards Unified Mathematical Reasoning in Large Language Models via a Multi-Paradigm Perspective (2025 · 23 citations)
    Current LLM math solvers are usually tuned for a single reasoning style. Some use natural-language chains of thought, others use executable code, and others use formal proofs. As a result, a model strong at arithmetic word problems often fails at theorem proving, and the reverse. The authors propose…
  2. Find Your Optimal Teacher: Personalized Data Synthesis via Router-Guided Multi-Teacher Distillation (2026 · 13 citations)
    Small LLMs are usually distilled by fine-tuning them on outputs from the most powerful available teacher. Prior work shows this can backfire: very strong teachers may produce answers that are too complex or too far from what the student can absorb. Earlier remedies (Mix, CAR) still make every candidate teacher answer…
  3. TL;DR: Too Long, Do Re-weighting for Efficient LLM Reasoning Compression (2025 · 8 citations)
    Reasoning-focused LLMs that generate long Chain-of-Thought (CoT) often overthink, spending many tokens even on easy questions. Existing compression approaches usually need laborious data labeling, model interpolation (as in CoT-Valve), or costly RL with length penalties.
  4. Data Mixing Agent: Learning to Re-weight Domains for Continual Pre-training (2026 · 1 citation)
    Continual pre-training of an LLM on a narrow target field, such as math, often causes catastrophic forgetting of general skills.
