LoongRL: Reinforcement Learning for Advanced Reasoning over Long Contexts

ICLR 2026oral

Reasoning over long contexts is essential for large language models. While reinforcement learning (RL) enhances short-context reasoning by inducing "Aha" moments in chain-of-thought, the advanced thinking patterns required for long-context reasoning remain largely unexplored, and high-difficulty RL…

LongRoPE2: Near-Lossless LLM Context Window Scaling

ICML 2025poster

LongRoPE2 is a novel approach that extends the effective context window of pre-trained large language models (LLMs) to the target length, while preserving the performance on the original shorter context window. This is achieved by three contributions: (1) a hypothesis that insufficient training in…

rStar-Coder: Scaling Competitive Code Reasoning with a Large-Scale Verified Dataset

NeurIPS 2025poster

Advancing code reasoning in large language models (LLMs) is fundamentally limited by the scarcity of high-difficulty datasets, especially those with verifiable input-output test cases necessary for rigorous solution validation at scale. We introduce rStar-Coder, which significantly improves LLM…

rStar-Math: Small LLMs Can Master Math Reasoning with Self-Evolved Deep Thinking

ICML 2025oral

We present rStar-Math to demonstrate that small language models (SLMs) can rival or even surpass the math reasoning capability of OpenAI o1, without distillation from superior models. rStar-Math achieves this by exercising ``deep thinking'' through Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), where a math polic…

LongRoPE: Extending LLM Context Window Beyond 2 Million Tokens

ICML 2024poster

Large context window is a desirable feature in large language models (LLMs). However, due to high fine-tuning costs, scarcity of long texts, and catastrophic values introduced by new token positions, current extended context windows are limited to around 128k tokens. This paper introduces LongRoPE t…

WaveCoder: Widespread And Versatile Enhancement For Code Large Language Models By Instruction Tuning

ACL 2024long

Recent work demonstrates that, after instruction tuning, Code Large Language Models (Code LLMs) can obtain impressive capabilities to address a wide range of code-related tasks. However, current instruction tuning methods for Code LLMs mainly focus on the traditional code generation task, resulting…
