Scaling Agentic Reinforcement Learning for Tool-Integrated Reasoning in VLMs

Meng Lu, Ran Xu, Yi Fang +14

While recent vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image understanding, their ability to "think with images", i.e., to reason through multi-step visual interactions, rem…

AceSearcher: Bootstrapping Reasoning and Search for LLMs via Reinforced Self-Play

Ran Xu, Yuchen Zhuang, Zihan Dong +7

Search-augmented LLMs often struggle with complex reasoning tasks due to ineffective multi-hop retrieval and limited reasoning ability. We propose AceSearcher, a cooperative self-p…

Boosting Reward Model with Preference-Conditional Multi-Aspect Synthetic Data Generation

Jiaming Shen, Ran Xu, Yennie Jun +6

Reward models (RMs) are crucial for aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences. They are trained using preference datasets where each example consists of one inpu…
