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.
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.
For a fixed data budget in LLM supervised fine-tuning, optimal data difficulty shifts toward harder examples as the budget grows because of the tradeoff between in-distribution generalization gap and extrapolation gap.
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.
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.
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.
