The paper introduces Actor‑Critic with Action Chunking (AC2), a method that assigns credit to short action chunks instead of entire trajectories, enabling policy updates without waiting for terminal rewards. AC2 employs local readiness, reference solutions, and 10k‑token chunks to make critic‑based credit assignment reliable. Experiments on Qwen3‑4B with FineProofs‑RL show AC2 surpasses GRPO’s peak validation score while using 2.5× fewer decoding FLOPs and fewer training steps.
arXiv:2606. 25451v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating token-level advantages in reinforcement learning (RL) for language models remains challenging because scaling up episodic experience collection is expensive.
arXiv:2606. 18810v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has driven substantial progress in training LLMs for reasoning tasks, but representative methods such as GRPO assign uniform credit across all tokens, wasting gradient on routine tokens while under-crediting pivotal reasoning steps.
arXiv:2607. 03126v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Outcome-supervised reinforcement learning scales to verifiable reasoning tasks, but trajectory-level rewards assign the same outcome signal to all sampled tokens, overlooking their unequal contributions to the reasoning process.

arXiv:2606. 20008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards has become a central tool for improving the reasoning ability of large language models, but current methods face a trade-off between simplicity and credit assignment.
arXiv:2607. 03126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has substantially improved the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs), but sparse outcome rewards still make token-level credit assignment difficult.
arXiv:2606. 00257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Token-level credit assignment for language-model reinforcement learning is usually formulated as if the policy were fully trainable, while practical LLM-RL pipelines often rely on parameter-efficient fine-tuning, especially LoRA.
