Tandem Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards

Difan Jiao, Raghav Singhal, Robert West +1

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has significantly improved the reasoning capability of large language models, reaching expert or even superhuman performance i…

LLM Safety From Within: Detecting Harmful Content with Internal Representations

Difan Jiao, Yilun Liu, Ye Yuan +4

Guard models are widely used to detect harmful content in user prompts and LLM responses. However, state-of-the-art guard models rely solely on terminal-layer representations and o…

ThinkTwice: Jointly Optimizing Large Language Models for Reasoning and Self-Refinement

Difan Jiao, Qianfeng Wen, Blair Yang +2

We introduce ThinkTwice, a simple two-phase framework that jointly optimizes LLMs to solve reasoning problems and refine the answers, based on Group Relative Policy Optimization (G…

Grounded Chess Reasoning in Language Models via Master Distillation

Zhenwei Tang, Qianfeng Wen, Seth Grief-Albert +4

Language models often lack grounded reasoning capabilities in specialized domains where training data is scarce but bespoke systems excel. We introduce a general framework for dist…

SEAM: Semantically Equivalent Across Modalities Benchmark for Vision-Language Models

Zhenwei Tang, Difan Jiao, Blair Yang +1

Evaluating whether vision-language models (VLMs) reason consistently across representations is challenging because modality comparisons are typically confounded by task differences…

Learning to Imitate with Less: Efficient Individual Behavior Modeling in Chess

Zhenwei Tang, Difan Jiao, Eric Xue +4

As humans seek to collaborate with, learn from, and better understand artificial intelligence systems, developing AIs that can accurately emulate individual decision-making becomes…
