S^3cMath: Spontaneous Step-level Self-correction Makes Large Language Models Better Mathematical Reasoners

Yuchen Yan, Jin Jiang, Yang Liu et al.

Self-correction is a novel method that can stimulate the potential reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs). It involves detecting and correcting errors during the inference process when LLMs solve reasoning problems. However, recent works do not regard self-correction as a spontaneous and intrinsic capability of LLMs. Instead, such correction is achieved through post-hoc generation, external knowledge introduction, multi-model collaboration, and similar techniques. In this paper, we propose a series of mathematical LLMs called S$^3$c-Math, which are able to perform Spontaneous Step-level Self-correction for Mathematical reasoning. This capability helps LLMs to recognize whether their ongoing inference tends to contain errors and simultaneously correct these errors to produce a more reliable response. We proposed a method, which employs a step-level sampling approach to construct step-wise self-correction data for achieving such ability. Additionally, we implement a training strategy that uses above constructed data to equip LLMs with spontaneous step-level self-correction capacities. Our data and methods have been demonstrated to be effective across various foundation LLMs, consistently showing significant progress in evaluations on GSM8K, MATH, and other mathematical benchmarks. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to introduce the spontaneous step-level self-correction ability of LLMs in mathematical reasoning.

CoreCodeBench: A Configurable Multi-Scenario Repository-Level Benchmark

Lingyue Fu, Hao Guan, Bolun Zhang et al.

As Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate increasingly sophisticated code processing capabilities, evaluating their performance on engineering-level code remains challenging. Existing repository-level benchmarks primarily focus on single scenarios, such as code generation or bug fixing, without adequately capturing the diversity and complexity of real-world software or project engineering workflows. Furthermore, these benchmarks suffer from limited controllability in question positioning and reliability issues in their generated test cases. To address these limitations, we present CorePipe, a fully automated pipeline that converts repositories into comprehensive test cases, and introduce CoreCodeBench, a configurable multi-scenario repository-level benchmark. To simulate real engineering scenarios, CorePipe generates three types of atomic questions (Development, BugFix, and Test-Driven Development) specifically targeting core code segments. These atomic questions are further combined into three types of composite questions, with difficulty levels flexibly adjusted through hyperparameter tuning. CoreCodeBench provides a comprehensive and extensive repository-level benchmark to investigate the applicability of LLMs in real-world engineering projects. Experiments with 16 LLMs across diverse scenarios reveal varying capabilities and offer multi-dimensional insights into LLM performance in engineering contexts. The code for CorePipe is available at https://github.com/AGI-Eval-Official/CoreCodeBench, and the data for CoreCodeBench can be accessed at https://huggingface.co/collections/tubehhh/corecodebench-68256d2faabf4b1610a08caa.

Introducing LongCat-Flash-Thinking: A Technical Report

Meituan LongCat Team, Anchun Gui, Bei Li et al.

We present LongCat-Flash-Thinking, an efficient 560-billion-parameter open-source Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) reasoning model. Its advanced capabilities are cultivated through a meticulously crafted training process, beginning with long Chain-of-Thought (CoT) data cold-start and culminating in large-scale Reinforcement Learning (RL). We first employ a well-designed cold-start training strategy, which significantly enhances the reasoning potential and equips the model with specialized skills in both formal and agentic reasoning. Then, a core innovation is our domain-parallel training scheme, which decouples optimization across distinct domains (e.g., STEM, Code, Agentic) and subsequently fuses the resulting expert models into a single, nearly Pareto-optimal model. This entire process is powered by our Dynamic ORchestration for Asynchronous rollout (DORA) system, a large-scale RL framework that delivers a greater than threefold training speedup over synchronous methods on tens of thousands of accelerators. As a result, LongCat-Flash-Thinking achieves state-of-the-art performance among open-source models on a suite of complex reasoning tasks. The model exhibits exceptional efficiency in agentic reasoning, reducing average token consumption by 64.5% (from 19, 653 to 6, 965) on AIME-25, without degrading task accuracy. We release LongCat-Flash-Thinking to promote further advances in reasoning systems and agentic AI research.
