EvoDuet: Bilevel Co-Evolution of Web Searching and Task Solving for Scientific Discovery
Young-Jun Lee, Jinheon Baek, Soyeong Jeong +5
Evolutionary search with large language models (LLMs) can stall when progress requires external knowledge the model lacks. Supplying relevant documents helps, but simply adding web…
Mid-Harness: Scaling Actions Between Model and Harness for Terminal Agents
Minki Kang, Ryo Hachiuma, Shaokun Zhang +8
Terminal agents act through stochastic model generations, yet the ability to generate a useful action does not ensure its reliable execution. A poor command (e.g., wrong package in…
Knowing When Thinking Is Not Enough: Teaching Small Reasoning Models to Reason Beyond Their Parametric Knowledge
Chanuk Lee, Minki Kang, Sangwoo Park +3
Scaling test-time computation is a powerful way to improve language-model reasoning, and is particularly appealing for small reasoning models (sRMs) that are cheap to serve. Howeve…
Surprising Success, Repeated Failure: Entropy-Guided Credit Assignment for Exploration in LLM Reasoning
Woongyeong Yeo, Minki Kang, Chanuk Lee +3
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) enhances reasoning in large language models (LLMs) through outcome-level feedback, yet recent approaches to finer-grained cred…
Evolution Fine-Tuning: Learning to Discover Across 371 Optimization Tasks
Young-Jun Lee, Seungone Kim, Minki Kang +5
Would experience designing faster GPU kernels also help close in on a long-standing open mathematical conjecture? Large Language Models (LLMs) integrated into evolutionary search h…
Zone of Proximal Policy Optimization: Teacher in Prompts, Not Gradients
Byung-Kwan Lee, Ximing Lu, Shizhe Diao +8
Knowledge distillation transfers a teacher's competence to a small student but is brittle in the small-student regime: forcing the student to imitate logits from a much larger teac…
