The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Implicit Reasoning in Large Language Models: A Comprehensive Survey](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2025-implicit-reasoning-large-language-models/)** *(2025 · 10 citations)* Chain-of-Thought prompting makes LLMs write out every intermediate step, which inflates output length, latency and cost.
2. **[HeLa-Mem: Hebbian Learning and Associative Memory for LLM Agents](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhu-2026-hela-mem-hebbian-learning-associative/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* LLM agents struggle to stay coherent across long, multi-session dialogues. Most memory systems store past turns as embeddings and fetch them by semantic similarity alone, so they miss links between memories that are related through shared history rather than wording. HeLa-Mem addresses this with a memory design…
3. **[Self-Reflective Generation at Test Time](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mu-2026-self-reflective-generation-test-time/)** *(2026)* Autoregressive LLMs cannot revise a token once it is emitted, so one early mistake in a long chain-of-thought can derail the whole solution.
