The cumulative token IS ratio gives unbiased prefix correction and lower variance than full-sequence ratios for token-level gradients in LLM policy optimization, enabling CTPO to outperform GRPO and GSPO baselines on mathematical reasoning tasks.
o1-like models overthink easy tasks; self-training reduces compute use without accuracy loss on GSM8K, MATH500, GPQA, and AIME.
dFlowGRPO is a new rate-aware RL method for discrete flow models that outperforms prior GRPO approaches on image generation and matches continuous flow models while supporting broad probability paths.
Muon optimizer with weight decay and update scaling achieves ~2x efficiency over AdamW for large LLMs, shown via the Moonlight 3B/16B MoE model trained on 5.7T tokens.
PRIME enables online process reward model updates in LLM RL using implicit rewards from rollouts and outcome labels, yielding 15.1% average gains on reasoning benchmarks and surpassing a stronger instruct model with 10% of the data.
SmolLM2 is a 1.7B-parameter language model that outperforms Qwen2.5-1.5B and Llama3.2-1B after overtraining on 11 trillion tokens using custom FineMath, Stack-Edu, and SmolTalk datasets in a multi-stage pipeline.
DeepSight uses parallel latent feature prediction in BEV for long-horizon world modeling and adaptive text reasoning to reach state-of-the-art closed-loop performance on the Bench2drive benchmark.
