Existing methods such as LATS search directly over code and handle mistakes through reflection, which piles up summaries of past errors in memory but never repairs the flawed reasoning itself. The authors propose RethinkMCTS, which runs… 2. **[LoopTool: Closing the Data–Training Loop for Robust LLM Tool Calls](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-looptool-closing-data-training-loop/)** *(2026 · 6 citations)* Synthetic data pipelines for training tool-calling LLMs are usually static. Data are generated once, without regard to what the model already handles or still gets wrong, and noisy labels from cheaper open-source generators stay in the set. LoopTool addresses this by turning data creation and training into one… ## Co-authors here 9 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Weinan Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/weinan-zhang/) ×2 - [Weiwen Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/weiwen-liu/) ×2 - [Yong Yu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yong-yu/) ×2 - [Kangning Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kangning-zhang/) - [Ruiming Tang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ruiming-tang/) - [Wei Xia](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/wei-xia/) - [Wenxiang Jiao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/wenxiang-jiao/) - [Xinyi Dai](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xinyi-dai/) - [Yasheng Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yasheng-wang/) ## 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 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2026/) - [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/): [EMNLP 2025](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/2025/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 17 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [6 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kounianhua-du/cited-by/).
