Patching Gaps In LLM Reasoning With Interventional Training

ICLR 2026poster

Reinforcement learning (RL) training of large language models (LLMs) is limited by the policy's ability to generate rollouts with non-zero rewards: without such rewards, the policy is not updated and learning is stalled on hard problems, which are problems that the policy consistently fails to sampl…

e3: Learning to Explore Enables Extrapolation of Test-Time Compute for LLMs

ICLR 2026poster

Test-time scaling offers a promising path to improve LLM reasoning by utilizing more compute at inference time; however, the true promise of this paradigm lies in extrapolation (i.e., improvement in performance on hard problems as LLMs keep "thinking" for longer, beyond the maximum token budget they…

Optimizing Test-Time Compute via Meta Reinforcement Finetuning

ICML 2025poster

Training models to efficiently use test-time compute is crucial for improving the reasoning performance of LLMs. While current methods mostly do so via fine-tuning on search traces or running RL against the 0/1 outcome reward, do these approaches efficiently utilize test-time compute? Would these ap…

Disguised Copyright Infringement of Latent Diffusion Models

ICML 2024poster

Copyright infringement may occur when a generative model produces samples substantially similar to some copyrighted data that it had access to during the training phase. The notion of access usually refers to including copyrighted samples directly in the training dataset, which one may inspect to id…
