HeaPA: Difficulty-Aware Heap Sampling and On-Policy Query Augmentation for LLM Reinforcement Learning
Weiqi Wang, Xin Liu, Binxuan Huang +13
RLVR has become a standard recipe for training LLMs on reasoning tasks with verifiable outcomes, but when rollout generation dominates the cost, efficiency hinges on which prompts…
GR2 Technical Report
Yufei Li, Zaiwei Zhang, Mingfu Liang +67
Industrial recommendation systems serve billions of users through a multi-stage funnel -- retrieval, early-stage ranking, and re-ranking -- where the final re-ranking step dispropo…
Mitigating Lost in Multi-turn Conversation via Curriculum RL with Verifiable Accuracy and Abstention Rewards
Ming Li, Pei Chen, Zhenhao Zhang +10
Large Language Models demonstrate strong capabilities in single-turn instruction following but suffer from Lost-in-Conversation (LiC), a degradation in performance as information i…
SFT Doesn't Always Hurt General Capabilities: Revisiting Domain-Specific Fine-Tuning in LLMs
Jiacheng Lin, Zhongruo Wang, Kun Qian +14
Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) on domain-specific datasets is a common approach to adapt Large Language Models (LLMs) to specialized tasks but is often believed to degrade their gene…
Self-Rewarding PPO: Aligning Large Language Models with Demonstrations Only
Qingru Zhang, Liang Qiu, Ilgee Hong +11
Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) has emerged as a crucial method for aligning large language models (LLMs) with human-annotated demonstrations. However, SFT, being an off-policy approa…
Ask a Strong LLM Judge when Your Reward Model is Uncertain
Zhenghao Xu, Qin Lu, Qingru Zhang +9
Reward model (RM) plays a pivotal role in reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) for aligning large language models (LLMs). However, classical RMs trained on human prefe…
