Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) has been widely used for automated reasoning data exploration, but current supervision extraction methods remain inefficient. Standard approaches retain only the single highest-reward trajectory, discarding the comparative signals present in the many explored paths....

While Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning enhances code generation in Large Language Models (LLMs), it introduces a critical challenge in uncertainty estimation: Confidence Saturation. Existing calibration methods, such as Self-Consistency, rely on the assumption that consensus implies correctness....
