New Study Explores Cognitive Foundations of Reasoning in LLMs

A new paper, ‘Cognitive Foundations for Reasoning and Their Manifestation in LLMs,’ submitted to arXiv CS AI on November 21, 2025, delves into the cognitive underpinnings of reasoning capabilities within Large Language Models (LLMs) and how these manifest in their operation. This extensive 40-page research aims to foster a deeper understanding of LLM reasoning mechanisms.

Authored by a team including Priyanka Kargupta, the study analyzes the complex thought processes of LLMs by comparing them to human cognitive processes, exploring their limitations and potential. The findings are anticipated to contribute to enhancing AI’s decision-making and problem-solving abilities.
