Abstract

Scaling inference-time computation has enabled Large Language Models (LLMs) to achieve strong reasoning performance, but their inherently sequential decoding incurs substantial latency, motivating parallelization of the generation process. However, existing parallel reasoning approaches suffer from performance degradation compared to their sequential counterparts, and often rely on specialized inference engines. We introduce ThreadWeaver, a framework for adaptive parallel reasoning that matches the accuracy of comparably sized sequential reasoning models while significantly reducing inference latency via three key innovations: 1) a two-stage parallel trajectory generator that produces high-quality parallel chain-of-thought data for supervised fine-tuning; 2) a trie-based rollout design that enables parallel reasoning on any off-the-shelf autoregressive inference engine; and 3) a parallelization-aware reinforcement learning framework that trains the model to balance reasoning accuracy with effective parallelization. Across six challenging math reasoning benchmarks, ThreadWeaver trained on top of Qwen3-8B achieves performance on par with cutting-edge sequential reasoning models (79.9% on AIME24 and 71.9% on average) while delivering up to 1.53x speedup in token latency, establishing a new Pareto frontier between accuracy and efficiency.

Low-signal caution for protocol decisions

Use this page for context, then validate protocol choices against stronger HFEPX references before implementation decisions.

  • The available metadata is too thin to trust this as a primary source.

Should You Rely On This Paper?

This paper is adjacent to HFEPX scope and is best used for background context, not as a primary protocol reference.
