Boule or Baguette? A Study on Task Topology, Length Generalization, and the Benefit of Reasoning Traces

William L. Tong, Ege Cakar, Cengiz Pehlevan

原文摘要

Recent years have witnessed meteoric progress in reasoning models: neural networks that generate intermediate reasoning traces (RTs) before producing a final output. Despite the rapid advancement, our understanding of how RTs support reasoning, and where this paradigm fails, remain incomplete. To promote greater clarity, we introduce PITA: a novel large-scale dataset of over 23 million statements in propositional logic and their corresponding proofs. As a benchmark for robust reasoning, we focus on length generalization: if a model is trained to determine truth or falsity on statements with proofs up to fixed length, how well does it generalize to statements requiring longer proofs? We propose notions of (1) task depth and (2) task breadth, which measure respectively (1) the number of proof steps required to solve a proposition and (2) the number of unique propositions within a task family. We vary these quantities across subsets of PITA, and find that RT models generalize well on relatively broad and shallow subsets, while deteriorating on relatively narrow and deep subsets compared to non-RT baselines. As a controlled point of comparison, we study a separate, tractable transitive inference task that exhibits qualitatively similar behavior. Our accompanying theory explains the scalings observed in this simpler setting, suggesting one mechanism by which breadth can favor RT models while depth can expose long-context weaknesses. Our findings suggest salient benefits and limitations of proof-like reasoning traces in controlled length-generalization settings.

Weighted State Souping for Efficient Long-Context Retrieval

William L. Tong, Aryo Lotfi, Emmanuel Abbe, Josh Susskind, Cengiz Pehlevan, Eran Malach

原文摘要

State space models (SSMs) combine fast inference and fixed state size with competitive language-modeling performance. Recently, state souping has been proposed as a procedure whereby an SSM independently encodes chunks of tokens like documents, tool definitions, or memory records. The resulting state encodings may be cached and recombined to cheaply construct a context for downstream queries. However, both state souping and vanilla SSMs deteriorate on long, crowded contexts, limiting their utility for long-horizon domains. To address this issue, we propose weighted state souping, a simple method that learns query-dependent weights for composing cached states. The resulting models improve long-context performance substantially across both single- and multi-hop document question answering, needle-in-a-haystack retrieval, variable tracking, and tool use. Our method can be further adapted into an efficient sparse variant, yielding near-constant encoding cost with respect to context length while preserving (and sometimes improving) performance. We also present simple theoretical arguments that illustrate why souping works and when it may fail, and discuss informally the advantages of weighted souping. Weighted state souping thus combines reusable context representations with selective retrieval, offering an efficient approach to language modeling over large collections of documents, tools, and other forms of structured context that increasingly dominate modern agentic workloads.

On the Importance of Gating: Memorization vs. In-Context Learning in State Space Models

William L. Tong, Aryo Lotfi, Emmanuel Abbe, Kostas Vaggelakos, Vishnu Banna, Etai Littwin, Josh Susskind, Cengiz Pehlevan 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

State Space Models (SSMs) have emerged as a compelling alternative to Transformers, enabling sequence modeling with constant memory and linear compute. Although SSMs exhibit reasonable performance and favorable computational characteristics, they continue to lag behind Transformers on tasks that require in-context learning and precise retrieval, slowing their adoption for large-scale language modeling. In this work, we demonstrate that both the success and failure of SSMs in these domains can be explained by studying the role of the gating mechanism, a prevalent component in modern recurrent networks. Specifically, we show through theory and experiments that this gating mechanism causes SSMs to first learn an in-weights "memorization" solution, while delaying, or even preventing, convergence to a correct in-context learning solution. Importantly, this happens even in cases where there are no fundamental limitations due to the architecture or its memory capacity. On the other hand, we find that gating is often beneficial for improving generalization to long sequence lengths. Our results illuminate the crucial role of the gating mechanism in shaping both the training dynamics and generalization of SSMs, and provide a basis for understanding and improving linear-time models.
