When Internalization Fails: Finding Better Targets for Reasoning Compression (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Reasoning language models generate long reasoning traces that increase latency and cost. |
| Approach: | They compare three approaches to shorten reasoning traces by inference-time truncation . they use Implicit Chain-of-Thought-style curricula that progressively shorten the teacher trace . |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods work well on GSM8K and multiplication tasks. |
