Dependency-Aware Chain-of-Thought Compression for Financial Reasoning
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.00413v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain of thought prompting improves complex reasoning, but its long intermediate traces create substantial inference cost and hinder practical deployment in financial settings. We present a Hierarchical Semantic Distillation Network, HSDN, for compressing reasoning chains while preserving answer accuracy and logical coherence. The framework combines semantic segmentation, dependency graph construction, dual encoder importance scoring, constrained segment selection, and local boundary rewriting. A frozen Qwen3 4B model is used only for feature ext

Why it matters
This model development creates a new option for users and a new testing obligation for developers. A fixed evaluation set comparing quality, cost and failure behavior is more useful than launch claims.
