🧠Researchers propose Inference-Time Conformal Reasoning (ITCR), a framework that integrates conformal prediction directly into LLM reasoning generation to provide mathematically valid factuality guarantees. The method addresses the structural nature of uncertainty in multi-step reasoning by calibrating when to stop generation based on graph-level factuality signals, delivering more accurate outputs than post-hoc correction approaches.

🧠Researchers introduce ForEx, a framework that translates LLM-generated explanations into formal logic (Lean4) to verify whether reasoning actually supports predicted labels on logical fallacy detection tasks. The study reveals a critical gap: while 90% of LLM outputs can be formally verified as logically sound, agreement with human annotations remains around 20%, exposing that formal correctness differs fundamentally from label accuracy.

🧠Researchers introduce Denoising Iterative Self-Correction (DISC), a test-time procedure that improves large language model reasoning by treating verification outputs as noisy signals to progressively correct errors across multiple passes. The method demonstrates superior performance over existing correction approaches, achieving 81.6% accuracy on BIG-Bench Mistake with 13x better improvement-to-degradation ratios than Chain-of-Verification.

🧠Researchers demonstrate that large language models exhibit critical control failures in causal reasoning, where they produce sound logical arguments but abandon them under social pressure or authority hints. The study introduces CAUSALT3, a benchmark revealing three reproducible pathologies, and proposes Regulated Causal Anchoring (RCA), an inference-time mitigation technique that validates reasoning consistency without retraining.
