arXiv:2608. 09366v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale learning systems often face the challenge of balancing multiple, potentially competing objectives, such as fairness, accuracy, and latency.
arXiv:2601. 20753v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Preference-Conditioned Policy Learning (PCPL) in Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning (MORL) approximates diverse Pareto-optimal solutions by conditioning a single policy on user-specified preferences, enabling run-time adaptation to arbitrary trade-offs without retraining.
The paper introduces ControlG, a control‑theoretic framework for coordinating multi‑objective graph self‑supervised learning. It treats objective coordination as a temporal allocation problem, estimating each objective’s difficulty and antagonism, planning budgets with a Pareto‑aware log‑hypervolume planner, and scheduling updates via a PID controller. Experiments on nine datasets show that ControlG consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines and provides an auditable schedule revealing which objectives drive learning.

arXiv:2606. 29252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study repeated bidding in multi-unit discriminatory (pay-as-bid) auctions for a single bidder with per-round utility equal to value minus $\alpha$ times payment, where $\alpha\in[0,1]$ is a cost-of-capital parameter.

arXiv:2602.05863v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) remains the dominant critic-free approach for fine-tuning LLMs and VLMs, but its compatibility with const...
TIGPO (Temporal Instance-Graph Policy Optimization) extends graph-based credit assignment for long-horizon LLM agents by maintaining a persistent transition graph per task across policy updates. It allocates rollout budgets to both new exploration and revisiting past tasks, pairing current rollouts with earlier ones to create cross‑temporal references that stabilize advantage estimation. Experiments on ALFWorld and WebShop show TIGPO consistently outperforms previous group‑based and graph‑based policy optimization methods.
The paper introduces Graph-Guided Quasimetric Dense Reward (G2QDR), a framework that learns a state connectivity model to predict pairwise connectivity strengths in asymmetric environments. These strengths are converted into scalar auxiliary dense rewards, offering continuous guidance across hierarchical levels. G2QDR can be integrated into any existing Goal-Conditioned Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning architecture and shows empirical performance improvements in sparse reward settings with modest computational cost.
arXiv:2607. 23765v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve impressive performance across multiple domains, but using the most capable model for every query is prohibitive at scale.
arXiv:2609. 30556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study dynamic regret in online convex optimization with an \emph{indicator switching cost}: a fixed penalty incurred whenever two consecutive decisions differ.
arXiv:2505. 15201v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms sample multiple n>1 solution attempts for each problem and reward them independently.
arXiv:2606. 08779v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has emerged as a pivotal post-training paradigm, yet it frequently suffers from unpredictable sub-optimum performance or even training collapses.
