${\text{textbfre}}^2$: Unlocking LLM Reasoning Via Reinforcement Learning With Re-solving

Abstract

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has shown promise in enhancing the reasoning performance of large language models (LLMs) by increasing test-time compute. However, even after extensive RLVR training, such models still tend to generate unnecessary and low-quality steps in their chain-of-thought (CoT), leading to inefficient overthinking and lower answer quality. We show that wh
