SPO++: Stream-Aligned Policy Optimization for Asynchronous Agentic RL

Kai Ruan, Jinghao Lin, Qianshan Wei +2

Group-relative reinforcement learning waits for sibling rollouts of the same prompt, which is costly for long and variable tool-use trajectories. Single-stream Policy Optimization…

When Does Muon Help Agentic Reinforcement Learning?

Kai Ruan, Jinghao Lin, Zihe Huang +4

Muon is competitive with AdamW in large-scale pre-training, but its operating regime in reinforcement-learning post-training remains unclear. We map this regime on ALFWorld, a spar…

Doomed from the Start: Early Abort of LLM Agent Episodes via a Recall-Controlled Probe Cascade

Kai Ruan, Zihe Huang, Ziqi Zhou +4

Large language model (LLM) agents often waste inference compute by continuing multi-step trajectories that are already doomed to fail. We study early failure prediction and inferen…

Projecting Out the Malice: A Global Subspace Approach to LLM Detoxification

Zenghao Duan, Zhiyi Yin, Zhichao Shi +8

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit exceptional performance but pose inherent risks of generating toxic content, restricting their safe deployment. While traditional methods (e.g.…

Chain-of-Memory: Lightweight Memory Construction with Dynamic Evolution for LLM Agents

Xiucheng Xu, Bingbing Xu, Xueyun Tian +4

External memory systems are pivotal for enabling Large Language Model (LLM) agents to maintain persistent knowledge and perform long-horizon decision-making. Existing paradigms typ…
