Learning Reasoning Rewards from Expert Demonstrations with Inverse Reinforcement Learning

Claudio Fanconi, Nicolás Astorga, Mihaela van der Schaar

Teaching large language models (LLMs) to reason during post-training typically relies on reinforcement learning with explicit outcome- or process-based reward functions. However, i…
