arXiv:2607. 06987v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become the standard paradigm for enhancing the complex reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs).
Self-distillation improves reasoning in large language models by using the model's own rollouts as training signal, typically through implicit logit-level alignment that minimizes KL divergence toward a privileged target distribution. However, because this supervision is generated via uncontrolled sampling, it provides no diagnostic insight into the model's specific errors or corrective guidance for its individual failure patterns.
arXiv:2606. 11206v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) is the predominant paradigm for aligning large language models (LLMs), yet it suffers from optimization instability and limited generalization.
Scientific reasoning models for biology combine language models with foundation models trained on multimodal biological data, including DNA, RNA, and proteins. These models are built through post-training, yet how each stage shapes reasoning and generalization remains poorly understood.
arXiv:2605. 28860v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) frequently induces catastrophic forgetting of prior capabilities.
