1. **[A Survey on Latent Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhu-2025-survey-latent-reasoning/)** *(2025 · 15 citations)* Chain-of-thought prompting makes LLMs reason step by step in written language, but each generated token carries very little information.
2. **[RoT: Enhancing Table Reasoning with Iterative Row-Wise Traversals](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2025-rot-enhancing-table-reasoning-iterative/)** *(2025 · 10 citations)* Reasoning LLMs that produce Long CoT have become strong at table question answering. However, building them requires costly training on curated data, and their long outputs tend to lose track of the table and invent cell contents. The authors (Harbin Institute of Technology) propose Row-of-Thought (RoT), a method…
3. **[Format-Adapter: Improving Reasoning Capability of LLMs by Adapting Suitable Format](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-format-adapter-improving-reasoning-capability/)** *(2026)* Parallel test-time scaling (TTS) usually samples many answers using a single reasoning format chosen by a human.
