Towards Scalable RLVR: Multimodal Instruction Following Data Synthesis and Distillation

Yirong Zeng, Zhang Sai, Yuxian Wang +4

Multimodal instruction following (MMIF) is crucial for building generalist agents. However, current training paradigms rely heavily on Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), which often lea…

EnvCraft: Synthesizing Executable Environments in Agentic RL for Claw-like Agent

Yirong Zeng, Shen You, Jinhang Feng +8

The paradigm of LLMs has rapidly shifted from passive language interfaces to autonomous Claw-like agents that execute long-horizon tasks across stateful workspaces. While Agentic R…

TinyJudge: Unverifiable Constraint Alignment via Lightweight Specialist Ensembles

Yirong Zeng, Yufei Liu, Xiao Ding +9

Instruction Following (IF) is a core capability of LLMs, requiring strict adherence to diverse constraints, ranging from verifiable ones (e.g., output length) to unverifiable ones…

DeepTool: Scaling Interleaved Deliberation in Tool-Integrated Reasoning via Process-Supervised Reinforcement Learning

Yang He, Xiao Ding, Bibo Cai +5

Tool-Integrated Reasoning (TIR) extends LLM capabilities by leveraging external environments. However, existing methods lack the deliberation during sequential tool invocation requ…

LSR-Ben: A Logical and Scientific Reasoning Benchmark for Evaluating Process Reward Models

Zhouhao Sun, Xuan Zhang, Xiao Ding +10

Currently, process reward models (PRMs) have exhibited remarkable potential for test-time scaling. Since large language models (LLMs) regularly generate flawed intermediate reasoni…

The Tool-Overuse Illusion: Why Does LLM Prefer External Tools over Internal Knowledge?

Yirong Zeng, Shen You, Yufei Liu +9

Equipping LLMs with external tools effectively addresses internal reasoning limitations. However, it introduces a critical yet under-explored phenomenon: tool overuse, the unnecess…

Precision over Diversity: High-Precision Reward Generalizes to Robust Instruction Following

Yirong Zeng, Yufei Liu, Xiao Ding +9

A central belief in scaling reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards for instruction following (IF) tasks is that, a diverse mixture of verifiable hard and unverifiable soft…

Consolidation or Adaptation? PRISM: Disentangling SFT and RL Data via Gradient Concentration

Yang Zhao, Yangou Ouyang, Xiao Ding +8

While Hybrid Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) followed by Reinforcement Learning (RL) has become the standard paradigm for training LLM agents, effective mechanisms for data allocation…

MAESTRO: Meta-learning Adaptive Estimation of Scalarization Trade-offs for Reward Optimization

Yang Zhao, Hepeng Wang, Xiao Ding +8

Group-Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has emerged as an efficient paradigm for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet its efficacy is primarily confined to domains with ver…
