The paper introduces Personalized Group Relative Policy Optimization (P‑GRPO), a new alignment framework for large language models that separates advantage estimation from immediate batch statistics. By normalizing advantages using preference‑group‑specific reward histories instead of the concurrent generation group, P‑GRPO maintains contrastive signals for distinct user preferences. Experiments across various tasks show that P‑GRPO converges faster and yields higher rewards than standard GRPO, improving alignment with heterogeneous human preferences while preserving general capabilities.

The paper introduces CONCUR, an advantage estimator designed for multi‑task, multi‑reward reinforcement learning with large language models. CONCUR replaces standardized scores of gated auxiliary rewards with adjusted scores that ensure higher primary rewards never receive lower scores and that responses at the primary reward ceiling receive equal scores. Two variants, CONCUR‑T and CONCUR‑A, are evaluated on models across math, code, instruction following, and writing tasks, outperforming all baselines and the approach of dropping all gated auxiliaries.
