1. **[REFINER: Reasoning Feedback on Intermediate Representations](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/paul-2023-refiner-reasoning-feedback-intermediate-representations/)** *(2023 · 152 citations)* Language models that write out intermediate reasoning steps often make faulty inferences that lead to wrong answers.
