The cumulative token IS ratio gives unbiased prefix correction and lower variance than full-sequence ratios for token-level gradients in LLM policy optimization, enabling CTPO to outperform GRPO and GSPO baselines on mathematical reasoning tasks.
POPO uses bounded importance sampling on positive rollouts and a siamese policy network to achieve implicit negative gradients and stable optimization, matching or exceeding GRPO on math benchmarks such as 36.67% on AIME 2025.
DARE reuses up to 87% of attention activations in diffusion LLMs through KV caching and output reuse, delivering 1.2x per-layer latency gains with average performance drops of 1.2-2.0%.
UCPO modifies GRPO with a uniformity penalty over correct solutions to prevent diversity collapse in RLVR, yielding up to 10% higher Pass@64 on AIME24 and 45% more equation-level diversity.
Validity-calibrated reasoning distillation improves transfer of reasoning skills by modulating updates based on relative local validity of next steps instead of enforcing full trajectory imitation.
HölderPO unifies token-level aggregation in GRPO via the Hölder mean with a tunable p parameter and annealing schedule, delivering 54.9% average accuracy on math benchmarks and 93.8% success on ALFWorld.
Entropy polarity is a signed token-level quantity derived from a first-order approximation of entropy change that predicts whether RL updates expand or contract policy entropy in LLM fine-tuning, revealing an asymmetry between high- and low-probability tokens.
A one-parameter scaling law models excess loss from data repetition as an additive overfitting penalty, recommending model capacity increases over excessive repetition and showing that strong weight decay reduces the penalty coefficient by ~70%.
Recovering an orthogonal basis from model activations yields a model-native skill characterization that improves reasoning Pass@1 by up to 41% via targeted data selection and supports inference steering, outperforming human-characterized alternatives.
D²Evo mines medium-difficulty anchors from the current model, trains a Questioner to generate matching questions, and jointly optimizes Solver and Questioner for progressive gains, outperforming baselines on math reasoning with under 2K real samples.
Optimal data difficulty for LLM supervised fine-tuning shifts toward harder examples as data budget increases due to the generalization-extrapolation tradeoff.
GIFT guides adapter fine-tuning on base models with confidence signals from instruction-tuned models before merging, yielding task-specialized models that outperform direct fine-tuning on math and knowledge benchmarks.
APMPO boosts average Pass@1 scores on math reasoning benchmarks by 3 points over GRPO by using an adaptive power-mean policy objective and feedback-driven clipping bounds in RLVR training.
FREIA applies free energy principles and adaptive advantage shaping to unsupervised RL, outperforming baselines by 0.5-3.5 Pass@1 points on math reasoning with a 1.5B model.
Technical report announcing Ling-2.6 and Ring-2.6 models with hybrid linear attention, evolutionary CoT, and KPop RL for efficient agentic intelligence at scale.
