Methods that give LLMs o1-style "deep thinking" usually need huge datasets, heavy compute, or distillation from much stronger models, and it is unclear how to help weaker base models reason better. The authors treat reasoning as a sequence of alternating "solve" and "verify" actions.… 2. **[Sentient Agent as a Judge: Evaluating Higher-Order Social Cognition in Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-sentient-agent-as-judge-evaluating/)** *(2026 · 6 citations)* Standard LLM leaderboards reward textual skill and helpfulness, but they rarely check whether a model actually reads people well. ## Co-authors here 12 of 14 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Jiaqi Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jiaqi-chen/) ×2 - [Peisong Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/peisong-wang/) ×2 - [Ruotian Ma](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ruotian-ma/) ×2 - [Cheng Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/cheng-liu/) - [Fanghua Ye](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fanghua-ye/) - [Jia Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jia-li/) - [Jian Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jian-li/) - [Nan Du](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/nan-du/) - [Qingxuan Jiang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qingxuan-jiang/) - [Xin Zhou](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xin-zhou/) - [Xingyu Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xingyu-chen/) - [Yifan Yang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yifan-yang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2025](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2025/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 28 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [9 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/bang-zhang/cited-by/).
