SRGen monitors next-token entropy and pauses when it exceeds a rolling local baseline. It optimizes a temporary hidden-representation adjustment to make the next-token distribution more decisive while preserving compatibility with the generated prefix, then discards it. This requires no retraining but uses inference-time gradients. On AIME2024, it scores 61.3% versus Self-Refine’s 52.0% for DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B, not establishing universal superiority.
