CoTranslator: Reverse to Forward Chain-of-Thought Translator for Reasoning Distillation

View original on arxiv.org

Overview

arXiv:2610.20828v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning distillation requires chain-of-thought (CoT) data with correct answers, but obtaining such data efficiently remains challenging. Forward CoT generation (FCG) followed by rejection sampling (RS) produces verified, question-only responses, yet may require many teacher calls for difficult problems. Reverse CoT generation (RCG) is cheaper because it conditions on the known answer, but access to this answer can lead to post-hoc rationalization
