ActGuide-RL uses human action data as plan-style guidance in mixed-policy RL to overcome exploration barriers in LLM agents, matching SFT+RL performance on search benchmarks without cold-start training.
SORT turns all-wrong prompts into selective learning signals by weighting tokens more predictable under plan guidance from reference solutions, improving over GRPO on reasoning benchmarks especially for weaker models.
EvoCoT uses self-generated and verified CoT trajectories in a two-stage curriculum to let LLMs learn from initially unsolved hard problems in RLVR settings.
SMEPO applies fine-grained semantic masking to expert guidance in RLVR, turning hard problems into fill-in-the-blank tasks while preserving structure, yielding up to 3.2 point accuracy gains and 4.2x faster training.
