BODHI: Do LLMs Branch Out and Discover Heterogeneous Inferences?
The nature of test-time exploration in RLVR-trained LLMs is investigated by employing controlled maze-solving experiments and extracting a tree structure from mathematical reasoning traces (BODHI-Trees) based on semantic equivalence to delineate between entropy arising from stylistic variations and genuine inferential branching.
