Learning from Environmental Feedback: Credit Assignment across Multiple Timescales for Agentic Reinforcement Learning
Yifu Huo, Shunjie Xing, Chenglong Wang +8
Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) often suffers from delayed and sparse rewards in real-world environments. A promising solution to this challenge is credit assignment, which aim…
RRC: Unlocking Generative Reward Models in LLM Reinforcement Learning via Ranking-Based Reward Construction
Chenglong Wang, Ziming Zhu, Yifu Huo +9
Recent advances in reward modeling show a paradigm shift from discriminative reward models to generative reward models. However, despite their strong capabilities in response ranki…
SPS: Steering Probability Squeezing for Better Exploration in Reinforcement Learning for Large Language Models
Yifu Huo, Chenglong Wang, Ziming Zhu +9
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising paradigm for training reasoning-oriented models by leveraging rule-based reward signals. However, RL training typically tends…
GRAM: A Generative Foundation Reward Model for Reward Generalization
Chenglong Wang, Yang Gan, Yifu Huo +8
In aligning large language models (LLMs), reward models have played an important role, but are standardly trained as discriminative models and rely only on labeled human preference…
Probing Preference Representations: A Multi-Dimensional Evaluation and Analysis Method for Reward Models
Chenglong Wang, Yifu Huo, Yang Gan +10
Previous methods evaluate reward models by testing them on a fixed pairwise ranking test set, but they typically do not provide performance information on each preference dimension…
MRO: Enhancing Reasoning in Diffusion Language Models via Multi-Reward Optimization
Chenglong Wang, Yang Gan, Hang Zhou +10
Recent advances in diffusion language models (DLMs) have presented a promising alternative to traditional autoregressive large language models (LLMs). However, DLMs still lag behin…
