1. **[SCOTT: Self-Consistent Chain-of-Thought Distillation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2023-scott-self-consistent-chain-thought/)** *(2023 · 145 citations)* Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting helps only very large LMs, and the rationales these models produce often fail to support, or even contradict, their answers.
2. **[Graph Chain-of-Thought: Augmenting Large Language Models by Reasoning on Graphs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jin-2024-graph-chain-thought-augmenting-large/)** *(2024 · 89 citations)* LLMs often hallucinate on knowledge-heavy questions. Standard retrieval augmentation treats each document as a separate unit, so it misses knowledge carried by links between texts, such as citations, co-purchases or legal references. Turning whole neighbourhoods into text is also impractical, because subgraphs grow…
3. **[Exploring Text-transformers in AAAI 2021 Shared Task: COVID-19 Fake News Detection in English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2021-exploring-text-transformers-aaai-2021/)** *(2021 · 44 citations)* The paper describes the third-place system in the Constraint@AAAI 2021 shared task. The task was binary classification of English social-media posts about COVID-19 (from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and similar sources) as fake or real. The authors trained on the official dataset plus extra data they gathered online.…
