| Challenge: | Recent work has explored reasoning efficiency via test-time scaling and early exit strategies. |
| Approach: | They propose an anytime reasoning framework and the Anytime Index to improve model quality . they also propose an inference-time self-improvement method to produce better intermediate solutions . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves on NaturalPlan, AIME, and GPQA datasets and improves reasoning quality and efficiency under budget constraints. |
