BALAR : A Bayesian Agentic Loop for Active Reasoning

This paper introduces BALAR (Bayesian Agentic Loop for Active Reasoning), a task-agnostic outer-loop algorithm enabling structured multi-turn interaction between an LLM agent and a user. BALAR maintains a structured belief over latent states, selects clarifying questions by maximizing expected mutual information, and significantly outperforms baselines across diverse reasoning benchmarks.
