Rethinking the Sampling Criteria in Reinforcement Learning for LLM Reasoning: A Competence-Difficulty Alignment Perspective

AAAI 2026technical

The low sampling efficiency during the rollout phase poses a significant challenge to scaling reinforcement learning for large language model reasoning. Existing methods attempt to improve efficiency by scheduling problems based on problem difficulties. However, these approaches suffer from unstabl

Enhancing Efficiency and Exploration in Reinforcement Learning for LLMs

EMNLP 2025

Reasoning large language models (LLMs) excel in complex tasks, which has drawn significant attention to reinforcement learning (RL) for LLMs. However, existing approaches allocate an equal number of rollouts to all questions during the RL process, which is inefficient. This inefficiency stems from t

SampleMix: A Sample-wise Pre-training Data Mixing Strategy by Coordinating Data Quality and Diversity

EMNLP 2025

Existing pretraining data mixing methods for large language models (LLMs) typically follow a domain-wise methodology, a top-down process that first determines domain weights and then performs uniform data sampling across each domain. However, these approaches neglect significant inter-domain overlap

DESED: Dialogue-based Explanation for Sentence-level Event Detection

COLING 2022main

Many recent sentence-level event detection efforts focus on enriching sentence semantics, e.g., via multi-task or prompt-based learning. Despite the promising performance, these methods commonly depend on label-extensive manual annotations or require domain expertise to design sophisticated template…

MUSIED: A Benchmark for Event Detection from Multi-Source Heterogeneous Informal Texts

EMNLP 2022main

Event detection (ED) identifies and classifies event triggers from unstructured texts, serving as a fundamental task for information extraction. Despite the remarkable progress achieved in the past several years, most research efforts focus on detecting events from formal texts (e.g., news articles,…

Improving Embedding-based Large-scale Retrieval via Label Enhancement

EMNLP 2021finding

Current embedding-based large-scale retrieval models are trained with 0-1 hard label that indicates whether a query is relevant to a document, ignoring rich information of the relevance degree. This paper proposes to improve embedding-based retrieval from the perspective of better characterizing the…

Improving Event Detection by Exploiting Label Hierarchy

ICASSP 2021accepted

Event types are hierarchical, yet most existing methods for event detection classify candidate triggers into fine-grained event types directly, without considering the rich semantic correlations in the hierarchy of event types. To fully utilize such information to improve the detection of fine-grain…

Graph Enhanced Dual Attention Network for Document-Level Relation Extraction

COLING 2020main

Document-level relation extraction requires inter-sentence reasoning capabilities to capture local and global contextual information for multiple relational facts. To improve inter-sentence reasoning, we propose to characterize the complex interaction between sentences and potential relation instanc…
