New method boosts LLM math reasoning with execution verification

Researchers have developed a new method for improving the mathematical reasoning capabilities of large language models by incorporating execution-based verification and dependency-aware filtering. This approach generates computationally sound solutions with dependency graphs, enhancing preference optimization for scientific tasks. When applied to Llama-3-8B and DeepSeekMath-7B, the method led to substantial improvements on the MATH and GSM8K benchmarks. Furthermore, extending this framework achieved state-of-the-art results on the PhyX multimodal physics reasoning task, demonstrating high scientific validity and reduced violations of scientific laws.
