Monitoring a process over time is so important in manufacturing processes to reduce the waste of money and time. Some charts as Shewhart, CUSUM, and EWMA are common to monitor a process with a single intended attribute which is used in…

Modern language models generate chain-of-thought traces by autoregressively sampling tokens from a finite vocabulary. While this discrete sampling has achieved remarkable success, conducting chain-of-thought with continuously-valued tokens…
