Reasoning with Language Model is Planning with World Model (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable reasoning capabilities, particularly with Chain-of-Thought-style prompts. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that repurposes the LLM as both a world model and a reasoning agent and incorporates a principled planning algorithm (based on Monte Carlo Tree Search) |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework repurposes the LLM as both a world model and a reasoning agent and incorporates a principled planning algorithm (based on Monte Carlo Tree Search) it achieves optimum balance between exploration and exploitation, while achieving high-reward reasoning paths efficiently. |

| Challenge: | MMLU is widely adopted but its ground truth errors obscure the true capabilities of LLMs. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for identifying dataset errors using a novel error annotation protocol and a subset of 5,700 manually re-annotated questions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework is based on 5,700 re-annotated questions from the MMLU benchmark. |

| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks for deep search agents rely on blackbox web search APIs . dynamic and opaque web APIs hinder reproducibility and fair comparisons - authors . |
| Approach: | They propose a benchmark that employs a fixed corpus for controlled retrieval for deep search agents. |
| Outcome: | The new benchmark shows that agents that combine large language models with retrieval tools excel at complex, reasoning-intensive queries. |
