1. **[Step-DPO: Step-wise Preference Optimization for Long-chain Reasoning of LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lai-2024-step-dpo-step-wise-preference/)** *(2024 · 98 citations)* Large language models often fail at multi-step math because one slip anywhere in a long derivation ruins the final answer.
2. **[Less Languages, Less Tokens: An Efficient Unified Logic Cross-lingual Chain-of-Thought Reasoning Framework](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-less-languages-less-tokens-efficient/)** *(2026)* Combining cross-lingual chain-of-thought (XCoT) with self-consistency improves multilingual reasoning, but it is costly.
