Training critiquing language models to assess and provide feedback on model outputs is a promising way to improve LLMs for complex reasoning tasks. However, existing approaches typically rely on stronger supervisors for annotating critique data. To address this, we propose Critique-RL, an online RL…
Training critique models to provide useful feedback for actor models is an effective approach in scalable oversight, especially for complex tasks like math reasoning. However, current research lacks suitable datasets for effectively training critique models and integrating them in a principled way a
Outcome-based reinforcement learning has made notable advances in training language models (LMs) for reasoning. However, without explicit incentives and controls, this paradigm has limitations and instability in eliciting high-quality reasoning trajectories with diverse actions—particularly for mode
Large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a promising foundation to build generally-capable agents (LLM-based agents) that can handle multi-turn decision-making tasks across various environments. However, the community lacks a unified interactive framework that covers diverse environments for com…
Process supervision, i.e., evaluating each step, is critical for complex large language model (LLM) reasoning and test-time searching with increased inference compute. Existing approaches, represented by process reward models (PRMs), primarily focus on rewarding signals up to the current step, exhib…
The Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture improves large language models (LLMs) by utilizing sparsely activated expert sub-networks with a routing module, but it typically demands high training cost. Previous work introduces parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) modules, e.g., LoRA, to achieve a li
In this paper, we propose **R**$^3$: Learning **R**easoning through **R**everse Curriculum **R**einforcement Learning (RL), a novel method that employs only outcome supervision to achieve the benefits of process supervision for large language models. The core challenge in applying RL to complex reas…
