Summary
A standard technique for scaling inference-time reasoning is self-consistency, where a model generates multiple reasoning chains and aggregates their answers. The paper proposes VecCISC, an improvement over confidence-informed self-consistency that leverages reasoning representations (vectors) to better weigh or select candidate answers.
