A new paper shows that using a weak model with k=8 proposals and a critic-comparator selection loop can match frontier model performance on SWE-bench Verified, reaching 76.4% accuracy. The key insight is that correct patches are often already present in a weak model's top-k candidates, and the challenge is effective selection using execution verification.

Reliable Chain-of-Thought via Prefix Consistency
This paper introduces 'prefix consistency,' a method that weights candidate responses in Chain-of-Thought reasoning based on answer reproduction rates during trace regeneration. It achieves high accuracy with significantly fewer tokens than standard majority voting across various reasoning models and benchmarks.
