This AI Paper from UC Berkeley Introduces a Data-Efficient Approach to Long Chain-of-Thought Reasoning for Large Language Models
Large language models (LLMs) process extensive datasets to generate coherent outputs, focusing on refining chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning. This methodology enables models to break down intricate problems into sequential steps, closely emulating human-like logical reasoning. Generating structured reasoning responses has been a major challenge, often requiring extensive computational resources and large-scale datasets to achieve optimal performance….
This AI Paper Explores Long Chain-of-Thought Reasoning: Enhancing Large Language Models with Reinforcement Learning and Supervised Fine-Tuning
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated proficiency in solving complex problems across mathematics, scientific research, and software engineering. Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting is pivotal in guiding models through intermediate reasoning steps before reaching conclusions. Reinforcement learning (RL) is another essential component that enables structured reasoning, allowing models to recognize and correct errors efficiently. Despite these advancements,…
