EnvRL: Learn from Environment Dynamics in Agentic Reinforcement Learning
arXiv:2606. 17680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for training Large Language Models (LLMs) as agents.
The paper introduces ReuseRL, a method that applies the Minimum Description Length principle to agentic reinforcement learning. By extracting a shared skill dictionary from successful trajectories and adding a segmentation cost to the RL objective, ReuseRL discourages idiosyncratic behaviors and promotes reusable abstract patterns. Experiments on ALFWorld, TextWorld-Cooking, and Countdown-Stepwise show that ReuseRL improves both in‑distribution and out‑of‑distribution success compared to vanilla GRPO and other baselines.

The paper introduces SPACE, a method for enabling large language model agents to emit variable-length action chunks in long-horizon tasks. By distilling chunk-boundary supervision from programmatic skills derived from successful trajectories, SPACE overcomes the tendency of agents to either act one step at a time or commit to overly long sequences. Experiments on ALFWorld and ScienceWorld demonstrate that SPACE raises success rates by 7.0%–31.3% and cuts LLM decision rounds by up to 78.9%.
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.

ContextPilot is a proactive context‑management framework designed to improve long‑horizon agentic reasoning with large language models. It expands the toolset to include planning, long‑term memory, and soft context offloading, and introduces a reinforcement‑learning strategy that focuses on critical editing decisions and assigns action‑level advantages. Experiments on long‑context QA and deep search tasks demonstrate that ContextPilot achieves stronger performance with a more compact working context, outperforming existing baselines across various base models and benchmarks.

arXiv:2510. 00615v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as agents in dynamic real-world environments, where success depends on maintaining precise records of actions and observations.
arXiv:2606. 08011v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although directly prompting off-the-shelf Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate meaning-preserving source rewrites can effectively enhance Machine Translation (MT) quality, doing so requires manually tuning prompts for different MT models.
arXiv:2606. 18831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context reasoning is an essential capability for large language models, particularly when they are deployed as autonomous agents that must reason over lengthy trajectories.
arXiv:2506. 01442v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) remains fundamentally limited by poor data efficiency and weak generalization.
arXiv:2607. 24280v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic search enables large language models to solve knowledge-intensive tasks by interleaving multi-step reasoning with retrieval, yet optimizing this with outcome-based reinforcement learning (RL) provides only sparse supervision.
