While extensive research has evaluated LLMs on complex reasoning tasks, the foundational building blocks of logical reasoning remain underexplored. We introduce IIBench, a benchmark evaluating immediate inference (elementary operations over categorical propositions). Our evaluation reveals that e...

Cultural taboo safety is essential for deploying large language models (LLMs), as culturally insensitive outputs may cause offense or even social harm. However, existing cultural benchmarks primarily assess cultural knowledge or values biases, while overlooking whether LLMs can recognize and resp...

Large reasoning models rely on long chain-of-thought to achieve strong performance, but applying such reasoning uniformly incurs high computational cost. Existing efficiency-oriented methods attempt to shorten or mix reasoning strategies, yet often degrade reasoning capability. We identify the ro...

Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a key approach for improving long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning in large language models (LLMs). However, existing methods such as GRPO often break down when task difficulty exceeds the model’s capacity, resulting in sparse rewards and inefficient tra...

Curiosity serves as a fundamental construct in human cognition.Inspired by curiosity, reinforcement learning with intrinsic rewards for large language models (LLMs) has shown substantial potential.However, it remains unclear whether existing curiosity-driven methods genuinely reflect curiosity-li...
