BubbleSpec exploits long-tail bubbles in synchronous RL by using faster ranks' idle time to pre-generate rollout drafts for speculative decoding, reducing steps by 50% and raising throughput up to 1.8x while preserving exact synchrony.
The cancellation hypothesis shows how rollout-level rewards produce token-level credit assignment in critic-free RL through cancellation of opposing signals on shared tokens, with empirical support and batching interventions that enhance performance.
DUET improves RLVR by allocating tokens across both prompt selection and rollout length, outperforming full-budget baselines even when using only half the tokens.
HORA adaptively allocates rollouts using hit utility to improve Pass@K over compute-matched GRPO on math reasoning benchmarks while preserving Pass@1.
BoostLoRA grows effective adapter rank linearly via iterative boosting on hard examples with orthogonal low-rank updates, outperforming both single-shot ultra-low-rank adapters and full fine-tuning on math and code tasks with zero added inference overhead.
NExt accelerates RLVR training for LLMs by nonlinearly extrapolating low-rank parameter trajectories extracted from LoRA runs.
OPD for LLMs suffers length inflation and repetition collapse; StableOPD uses reference divergence and rollout mixing to prevent it and improve math reasoning performance by 7.2% on average.
SUPERNOVA adapts instruction-tuning data for RLVR and achieves up to 52.8% relative gains on general reasoning benchmarks like BBEH through targeted task selection and mixing.
HölderPO unifies token aggregation in GRPO via the Hölder mean with dynamic p annealing, reporting 54.9% average math-benchmark accuracy and 93.8% ALFWorld success.
HTPO introduces hierarchical token-level objective control in RLVR to balance exploration and exploitation by grouping tokens according to difficulty, correctness, and entropy, yielding up to 8.6% gains on AIME benchmarks over DAPO.
CASPO trains LLMs via iterative direct preference optimization so that token-level confidence tracks step-wise correctness, then applies Confidence-aware Thought pruning at inference to improve both reliability and speed on reasoning benchmarks.
A training recipe for tool-integrated reasoning models achieves state-of-the-art open-source results on math benchmarks such as 96.7% and 99.2% on AIME 2025 at 4B and 30B scales by balancing tool-use trajectories and optimizing for pass@k during SFT before stable RLVR.
RL for LLM reasoning acts as sparse policy selection at high-entropy tokens already present in the base model, enabling ReasonMaxxer—an efficient contrastive method that recovers most RL gains at three orders of magnitude lower cost.
WebGen-R1 uses end-to-end RL with scaffold-driven generation and cascaded rewards for structure, function, and aesthetics to transform a 7B model into a generator of deployable multi-page websites that rivals much larger models.
A parameter-free sampling strategy called CUTS combined with Mixed-CUTS training prevents mode collapse in RL for saturated LLM reasoning tasks and raises AIME25 Pass@1 accuracy by up to 15.1% over standard GRPO.
HEAL mitigates entropy collapse in few-shot RLVR by selectively adding general-domain data and aligning trajectory-level entropy dynamics, matching full-shot performance with 32 target samples.
PreRL applies reward-driven updates to P(y) in pre-train space, uses Negative Sample Reinforcement to prune bad reasoning paths and boost reflection, and combines with standard RL in Dual Space RL to outperform baselines on reasoning tasks.
ATTC reduces 'Tool Ignored' errors in tool-integrated reasoning by adaptively trusting tool results according to generated code confidence, yielding 4.1-7.5% gains across models and datasets.
MiniMax-M1 is a 456B parameter hybrid-attention MoE model trained with CISPO RL that achieves performance comparable or superior to DeepSeek-R1 and Qwen3-235B on reasoning and software engineering tasks while training in three weeks on 512 GPUs.
An LLM-as-a-judge evaluation framework for math reasoning outperforms symbolic methods by accurately assessing diverse answer representations and formats.
Multimodal reasoning models hallucinate at high-entropy cognitive bifurcation points due to loss of visual semantic anchoring, and the V-STAR training paradigm with HVAR rewards and FRM reflection mitigates this by reinforcing visual attention.
Adaptive scheduling of penalties over training time plus confidence-based weighting of mistakes improves LLM performance on math reasoning benchmarks compared to fixed-penalty negative reinforcement.
