LoopCD refines Transformer decoding without additional training
The paper, published on October 2, 2026, presents a technique that compares predictions from early and late recurrent states to refine decoding. It reports higher accuracy on AIME 2024 with Ouro-2.6B-Thinking.

What happened and what to do
Published on October 2, 2026, the paper presents LoopCD, a method that uses the difference between predictions from early and late recurrent states to refine Transformer decoding. According to the paper, the technique requires neither training nor additional recurrent iterations. Reported results include higher accuracy on AIME 2024 with Ouro-2.6B-Thinking and comparable or better performance on other reported results.
A company developing or operating recurrent models can evaluate the method on representative tasks, measuring response quality and computational cost. An implementation could include an evaluation pipeline, comparison with current decoding, and accuracy and FLOPs monitoring before adoption.
