Core Innovation

This paper presents JointThinking, which generates parallel answers using Thinking and Nothinking modes and only triggers additional reasoning when answers conflict. This reduces unnecessary computation and improves robustness compared to existing chain-of-thought and majority voting methods. The approach also scales effectively with model size and leverages structural thinking diversity for better performance.

Market Size (TAM)

$2–10B TAM, $1–2B SAM; assumption: growing demand for efficient and accurate reasoning in AI applications across industries.
