Title: Compositional Consistency-Guided Decoding for Three-Way Logical Question Answering

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.06196v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Three-way logical question answering (QA) assigns one of $\text{True}$, $\text{False}$, or $\text{Unknown}$ to a hypothesis $H$ given a premise set $S$. We study this task as a compact compositional inference problem: predictions for $H$ and for a mechanically negated hypothesis $\neg H$ should agree under a deterministic negation map. Despite this simple structure, large language models (LLMs) can exhibit two practical failure modes: (i)
