Self-Consistency from Only Two Samples: CoT-PoT Ensembling for Efficient LLM Reasoning

arXiv:2604.17433v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Self-consistency (SC) is a popular technique for improving the reasoning accuracy of large language models by aggregating multiple sampled outputs, but it comes at a high computational cost due to extensive sampling. We introduce a hybrid ensembling approach that leverages the complementary strengths of two distinct modes of reasoning: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) and Program-of-Thought (PoT). We describe a general framework for combining these...
