  1. RARE: Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning Enhancement for Large Language Models (2025 · 20 citations)
    Answering knowledge-heavy questions, especially in medicine, requires both several reasoning steps and facts that a pretrained model may lack or hold only in outdated form.
  2. Fast and Effective On-Policy Distillation from Reasoning Prefixes (2026 · 12 citations)
    On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student LLM on its own sampled outputs, using token-level feedback from a teacher.
  3. MedQA-CS: Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE)-Style Benchmark for Evaluating LLM Clinical Skills (2026 · 3 citations)
    Most medical LLM benchmarks, such as MedQA, rely on multiple-choice questions. These test what a model knows but not whether it can carry out a patient encounter. MedQA-CS fills this gap with an AI-SCE benchmark modeled on the OSCE format of the USMLE Step 2 CS exam, targeting the "shows how" tier of Miller's Pyramid.
