Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a dominant paradigm for enhancing LLMs' reasoning capabilities. However, RL algorithms with PPO-Clip are inherently limited by exploration collapse. Subsequent works remain primarily heuristic and fail to identify the essential cause of PPO-…
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is a powerful recipe for improving language-model reasoning, but it is expensive to repeat on every new strong model because the target model must generate many rollouts during training. As models scale, post-training itself b…
Reinforcement learning has become a standard post-training recipe for large language models, but dense full-parameter updates create two deployment-relevant bottlenecks: suppressed reasoning performance, often reflected by premature saturation of test-time scaling, and interferen…
