New Chain of Computation architecture boosts LLM planning capabilities

Researchers have developed a new computational architecture called Chain of Computation (COC) to improve the planning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). This architecture integrates a transformer-based LM within an iterative loop, utilizing a Structured Context Window (SCW) that maintains a constant size while allowing selective access to information. Experiments show that even smaller LLMs trained with COC can achieve over 99.89% success rates on planning problems like BlocksWorld and the Pancake puzzle, generalizing from minimal training data. Further enhancements, such as symbolic arithmetic support or a deterministic pushdown automaton formulation for the SCW, enable COC to solve complex instances of the Tower of Hanoi problem with over a million actions.

    Planning with Transformers: Chain of Computation and Structured Context Windows

    arXiv:2607.17710v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have had a remarkable impact across many areas of machine learning. However, recent studies have shown that they struggle to reliably solve planning problems. At the same time, theoretical results have s…
