Equilibrium Reasoners enable scalable reasoning via learned attractors

Researchers have introduced Equilibrium Reasoners (EqR), a novel framework that enables scalable reasoning in iterative neural network models. EqR hypothesizes that generalizable reasoning emerges from learning task-conditioned attractors, which are dynamical systems that stabilize on valid solutions. This approach allows models to adaptively allocate computational resources based on task difficulty, significantly improving accuracy on complex problems like Sudoku-Extreme by scaling test-time compute.

    Equilibrium Reasoners: Learning Attractors Enables Scalable Reasoning

    Scaling test-time compute by iteratively updating a latent state has emerged as a powerful paradigm for reasoning. Yet the internal mechanisms that enable these iterative models to generalize beyond memorized patterns remain unclear. We hypothesize that generalizable reasoning ar…
