Reasoning-Intensive Regression
Researchers introduce MENTAT, a novel method for reasoning-intensive regression (RiR)—extracting subtle numerical scores from text in specialized domains. The approach combines batch-reflective prompt optimization with neural ensemble learning, achieving up to 65% improvement over standard LLM prompting and fine-tuning approaches on tasks like rubric-based scoring and domain-specific retrieval.
