How Do Answer Tokens Read Reasoning Traces? Self-Reading Patterns in Thinking LLMs for Quantitative Reasoning (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prior work on activation steering has focused on shaping reasoning traces, but it remains unclear how answer tokens actually read and integrate the reasoning to produce reliable outcomes. |
| Approach: | They propose a training-free steering method that uses self-reading quality scores to guide inference toward benign self-readiness and away from uncertain and disorganized reading. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method yields consistent accuracy gains in the reasoning traces generated by thinking LLMs. |
Implicit Relation Linking for Question Answering over Knowledge Graph (2022.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods rely on textual similarities between NL and KG to build relation links. |
| Approach: | They propose an implicit relation linking method called ImRL which links relation phrases in NL to relation paths in KG. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods on two benchmarks and a newly-created datasets. |
