The paper introduces Density-Aware Reward Aggregation (DARA), a method that adjusts reward weighting in multi-reward reinforcement learning based on the density of active rewards within rollout batches. By applying an inverse-square-root density correction, DARA gives more weight to less frequently active rewards, enabling faster learning of targeted behaviors. Experiments on tool calling and mathematical reasoning demonstrate that DARA achieves comparable final performance while reducing training steps by up to 26% and 65% respectively.
Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance, but often at prohibitive training cost - a challenge that is especially acute for compact models ($\leq 4 \, \mathrm{B}$ parameters) trained under limited budgets. We introduce MADA-RL, a post-training framework that specializes compact models into generator and critic roles and trains them with a debate-aware learning signal, fine-tuning only a small subset of parameters via LoRA adapters.

Online Self-Weighted Fine‑Tuning (OSW‑FT) augments standard supervised fine‑tuning by adding online, trajectory‑level weighting: for each query the model estimates its current success rate from a small number of inference‑only rollouts and rescales the SFT loss accordingly. The method keeps the optimization direction anchored to the expert trajectory while adapting the update magnitude online, and it is shown to be unbiased for any finite rollout count with a convergence analysis. Across Qwen3 models from 0.6B to 4B, OSW‑FT consistently outperforms plain SFT on challenging benchmarks such as AIME, achieving a favorable compute‑performance trade‑off with only two online rollouts.
