Contextual Rollout Bandits for Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards

ICML 2026poster

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) is an effective paradigm for improving the reasoning capabilities of large language models. However, existing RLVR methods utilize rollouts in an indiscriminate and short-horizon manner: responses of heterogeneous quality within each prompt are t…

Harnessing Multiple Large Language Models: A Survey on LLM Ensemble

IJCAI 2026

LLM Ensemble---which involves the comprehensive use of multiple large language models (LLMs), each aimed at handling user queries during downstream inference, to benefit from their individual strengths---has gained substantial attention recently. The widespread availability of LLMs, coupled with the

ResRL: Boosting LLM Reasoning via Negative Sample Projection Residual Reinforcement Learning

ICML 2026poster

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) enhances reasoning of Large Language Models (LLMs) but usually exhibits limited generation diversity due to the over-incentivization of positive rewards. Although methods like Negative Sample Reinforcement (NSR) mitigate this issue by upweighting…

Improving Temporal Link Prediction via Temporal Walk Matrix Projection

NeurIPS 2024poster

Temporal link prediction, aiming at predicting future interactions among entities based on historical interactions, is crucial for a series of real-world applications. Although previous methods have demonstrated the importance of relative encodings for effective temporal link prediction, computation…

Continuous-Time Graph Learning for Cascade Popularity Prediction

IJCAI 2023poster

Information propagation on social networks could be modeled as cascades, and many efforts have been made to predict the future popularity of cascades. However, most of the existing research treats a cascade as an individual sequence. Actually, the cascades might be correlated with each other due to…
