ExpRL: Exploratory RL for LLM Mid-Training

Violet Xiang, Amrith Setlur, Chase Blagden +2

Sparse reward reinforcement learning (RL) has become a standard tool for improving LLM reasoning, but its success depends critically on the coverage present in the base model. In p…

BigFinanceBench: A Workflow-Grounded Benchmark for Financial-Research Agents

Alex Wang, Georg Meinhardt, Jacob Katz +4

Financial-research answers are decision-relevant only when another analyst can audit how they were produced: which source was chosen, which period and accounting definition were us…

Just Enough Thinking: Efficient Reasoning with Adaptive Length Penalties Reinforcement Learning

Violet Xiang, Chase Blagden, Rafael Rafailov +4

Large reasoning models (LRMs) achieve higher performance on challenging reasoning tasks by generating more tokens at inference time, but this verbosity often wastes computation on…

Big-Math: A Large-Scale, High-Quality Math Dataset for Reinforcement Learning in Language Models

Alon Albalak, Duy Phung, Nathan Lile +8

Increasing interest in reasoning models has led math to become a prominent testing ground for algorithmic and methodological improvements. However, existing open math datasets eith…

Towards System 2 Reasoning in LLMs: Learning How to Think With Meta Chain-of-Thought

Violet Xiang, Charlie Snell, Kanishk Gandhi +11

We propose a novel framework, Meta Chain-of-Thought (Meta-CoT), which extends traditional Chain-of-Thought (CoT) by explicitly modeling the underlying reasoning required to arrive…

Surveying the Effects of Quality, Diversity, and Complexity in Synthetic Data From Large Language Models

Alex Havrilla, Andrew Dai, Laura O'Mahony +17

Synthetic data generation with Large Language Models is a promising paradigm for augmenting natural data over a nearly infinite range of tasks. Given this variety, direct compariso…

Generative Reward Models

Dakota Mahan, Duy Van Phung, Rafael Rafailov +6

Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) has greatly improved the performance of modern Large Language Models (LLMs). The RLHF process is resource-intensive and technicall…
