The paper introduces Rollout-Time Intervention (RTI), a method that uses reward-side evidence during rollouts to transform unsuccessful trajectories into successful ones, thereby providing learning signals for tasks beyond a policy’s intrinsic exploration limits. RTI filters out trajectories with excessive distributional shifts, allowing these off-policy interventions to guide policy optimization effectively. Experiments on five benchmarks show that RTI consistently outperforms existing RL baselines, enabling post-trained policies to approach the performance of stronger large language models and surpass their original capability boundaries.

RollVerify is a lightweight reinforcement learning framework that addresses the trade‑off between efficiency and accuracy in long‑tail rollout settings. It introduces an off‑policy shift metric (OPS) to quantify deviation in partially generated trajectories and uses sequence‑level and token‑level verification to truncate invalid suffixes before training. Experiments on mathematical reasoning tasks show that RollVerify matches on‑policy accuracy while cutting training costs, with preliminary evidence from code‑generation tasks.

PlanPO introduces a group planning-aware policy optimization method for multi-turn agentic large language models, addressing the issue of advantage collapse caused by treating all successful trajectories equally. By incorporating coarse-to-fine advantage signals that reflect differences in trajectory and turn lengths, PlanPO encourages agents to learn generalizable planning and generation behaviors. Experiments show a 27.2% average improvement over GRPO on benchmarks such as ALFWorld, WebShop, and SciWorld, with minimal extra training cost.

arXiv:2607. 21419v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In long-horizon LLM agent reinforcement learning, weak policies often repeat similar failures, producing uninformative rollout trajectories and limiting effective policy optimization.
MInTRL (Minimal Intervention Reinforcement Learning) expands exploration in on-policy reinforcement learning by inserting sparse, local corrections into rollouts via a judge-intervention policy. These interventions replace erroneous suffixes and immediately return control to the main policy, allowing the agent to explore beyond its natural trajectory while maintaining on-policy data. The method uses a sequence-level advantage-regression objective, avoiding importance sampling, and demonstrates superior performance on math and code benchmarks compared to standard on-policy and off-policy baselines.
