Information Gain-based Rollout Policy Optimization: An Adaptive Tree-Structured Rollout Approach for Multi-Turn LLM Agents

arXiv:2607. 06223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning has become a promising paradigm for improving large language model (LLM) agents on long-horizon search tasks, where the agent must make a sequence of intermediate decisions before receiving a final outcome.

Process Reward Informed Tree Rollout for Effective Multi-Turn RL

arXiv:2607. 15610v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a key approach for training LLM agents, yet popular methods such as GRPO/RLOO rely on multiple independently sampled complete trajectories for advantage estimation.

PlanPO: Group Planning-Aware Policy Optimization for Multi-Turn Agentic LLMs

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.

SAPO: Single-Rollout Autoregressive Policy Optimization for Agentic Reinforcement Learning

Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) has become a critical stage in the post-training of large language models. Existing critic-free, group-relative methods estimate policy advantages from multiple rollouts, avoiding the substantial memory overhead of conventional proximal policy optimization (PPO) and achieving strong performance on long-horizon interactive tasks.
