Large language models (LLMs) are showing promise in inductive reasoning – the ability to infer general rules from specific examples. Think of it like figuring out the pattern in a sequence. However, current methods often waste computing power by generating many similar, redundant hypotheses. Imagine trying to solve a puzzle by repeatedly trying the same incorrect piece. This new research explores the impact of 'temperature' (a control for randomness in LLM output) and finds that simply increasing it doesn't solve the redundancy problem. While higher temperatures initially increase diversity, they eventually lead to nonsensical outputs, like a puzzle piece that doesn't fit anywhere. To overcome this, researchers introduce a clever two-stage approach called "Mixture of Concepts" (MoC). First, the LLM generates a diverse set of relevant concepts, like brainstorming different puzzle-solving strategies. Then, these concepts guide the LLM to produce distinct hypotheses, effectively exploring different ways to fit the puzzle pieces together. Experiments show that MoC significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of LLM inductive reasoning across various tasks, suggesting a more human-like approach to problem-solving in AI. By generating diverse concepts and then using them to create hypotheses, LLMs can tackle even highly complex problems that stump traditional methods. This research opens exciting avenues for improving LLM reasoning abilities, bringing us closer to AI that can learn and generalize like humans.
