Efficient Exploration for Iterative Nash Preference Optimization

Tianlong Nan, Xiaopeng Li, Christian Kroer +1

Preference alignment is central to improving large language models (LLMs), but reward-based formulations can be restrictive when human preferences are non-transitive. Nash learning…

DRIFT: Decoupled Rollouts and Importance-Weighted Fine-Tuning for Efficient Multi-Turn Optimization

Jian Mu, Tianyi Lin, Chengwei Qin +2

Large language models are increasingly deployed in multi-turn interactive settings where users or environments can iteratively provide lightweight feedback. Unfortunately, optimizi…

Stepwise Guided Policy Optimization: Coloring your Incorrect Reasoning in GRPO

Peter Chen, Xiaopeng Li, Ziniu Li +2

Reinforcement learning (RL) has proven effective in strengthening the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). A widely adopted method, Group Relative Policy Optimiz…
