In long-horizon tasks, recent agents based on Large Language Models (LLMs) face a significant challenge that sparse, outcome-based rewards make it difficult to assign credit to intermediate steps. Previous methods mainly focus on creating dense reward signals to guide learning, either through tradit…
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has proven effective for enhancing Large Language Models (LLMs) on complex reasoning tasks. Yet current methods face an exploration dilemma: standard RL struggles to escape the local optima of pre-trained LLMs’ sharply peaked initial policies, bo…
Inference scaling empowers LLMs with unprecedented reasoning ability, with reinforcement learning as the core technique to elicit complex reasoning. However, key technical details of state-of-the-art reasoning LLMs are concealed (such as in OpenAI o1 blog and DeepSeek R1 technical report), thus the…
Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) is essential for aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences and values. While recent research has primarily focused on algorithmic advancements—such as reducing computational overhead or strengthening reward models to mitigate rewar…
