Latent Reasoning in TRMs is Secretly a Policy Improvement Operator
Interprets recursive state updates as changes to a model's answer distribution. Trains intermediate updates toward progressively less corrupted puzzle solutions, testing whether recursion improves the answer at each step.

Recurrent reasoning — Repeat parts of the model or keep intermediate information in memory while working through a problem. Some methods also learn how many passes to run.
Analysis and evaluation — Measure how well these methods work, investigate what their internal computation does, and identify where they fail. This includes experiments, studies of model internals, and mathematical results.
