Positive-negative prompt pairing with weighted GRPO improves RLVR sample efficiency, raising AIME 2025 Pass@8 from 16.8 to 22.2 on Qwen2.5-Math-7B while matching large-scale training.
GPS trains a small model on optimization history to predict prompt difficulty and select intermediate-difficulty diverse batches, yielding better training efficiency, final performance, and test-time allocation than baselines on reasoning benchmarks.
SHIFT selects compact RLVR training subsets using the magnitude of hidden-state change from a single inference rollout plus quality-weighted farthest-first coverage, outperforming training-free baselines on math reasoning and medical QA under low budgets.
DARE co-evolves difficulty estimation and policy in RL for LLMs to improve training efficiency, final performance, and inference speed by using tailored strategies for different difficulty levels.
GXPO approximates longer local lookahead in GRPO training via gradient extrapolation from two optimizer steps using three backward passes total, improving pass@1 accuracy by 1.65-5.00 points over GRPO and delivering up to 4x step speedup.
POCA combines Pareto optimization with curriculum alignment to improve multi-reward reinforcement learning for visual text generation without relying on weighted sums.
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.
Online Label Refinement lets LLMs learn robust reasoning from noisy supervision by correcting labels when majority answers show rising rollout success and stable history, delivering 3-4% gains on math and reasoning benchmarks even at high noise levels.

FEST improves RLVR sample efficiency on math and coding benchmarks by combining supervised signals, on-policy signals, and decaying weights on just 128 randomly chosen demonstrations, matching full-dataset baselines.
Cost-Aware SGD samples by gradient-norm-to-cost ratio and is instantiated as Cost-Aware GRPO for length-dependent policy gradients, reducing tokens used in LLM RL while matching baseline accuracy.
Mixed-complexity procedural datasets provide up to 5x sample efficiency for RLVR on small models in low-data regimes, with low-to-high complexity generalization observed across counting, graph, and spatial tasks.
TimeRFT applies reinforcement learning with multi-faceted step-wise rewards and informative sample selection to improve generalization and accuracy in TSFM adaptation beyond supervised fine-tuning.
