Can 1B LLM Surpass 405B LLM? Rethinking Compute-Optimal Test-Time Scaling (arxiv.org)
Test-Time Scaling (TTS) is an important method for improving the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) by using additional computation during the inference phase. However, current studies do not systematically analyze how policy models, Process Reward Models (PRMs), and problem difficulty infl...
