Uncovering Structural Patterns in Long Chain-of-Thought Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jiang-2025-what-makes-good-reasoning-chain/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* Long chain-of-thought (LCoT) reasoning lets LLMs solve hard problems, but it is unclear which properties of a reasoning trace indicate that the final answer will be right.
2. **[Detecting What Queries Seek: Steering LLM Safety with FFN Output Activation Monitoring](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/luo-2026-detecting-what-queries-seek-steering/)** *(2026)* Activation steering cheaply improves LLM safety by adding a refusal vector to hidden states at inference time.
