RollVerify is a lightweight reinforcement learning framework that addresses the trade‑off between efficiency and accuracy in long‑tail rollout settings. It introduces an off‑policy shift metric (OPS) to quantify deviation in partially generated trajectories and uses sequence‑level and token‑level verification to truncate invalid suffixes before training. Experiments on mathematical reasoning tasks show that RollVerify matches on‑policy accuracy while cutting training costs, with preliminary evidence from code‑generation tasks.

arXiv:2607. 14952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A growing gap separates inference context lengths from RL post-training: inference systems are approaching million-token contexts, while post-training workloads often remain at 256K tokens or below and rely on length generalization at deployment.

The paper introduces CoPE, a method that trains language agents by adding multi‑step action targets to the policy backbone. By supervising each action forecasted from preceding histories, CoPE enables acting and forecasting to co‑evolve without extra inference cost. Across five benchmarks, CoPE outperforms existing RL baselines, achieving up to twice the sample efficiency on ScienceWorld and improving overall performance on realistic applications.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is becoming increasingly important for post-training large language models (LLMs). Previous RL pipelines for LLMs were mostly synchronous and batch-interleaved, which is inefficient for long-horizon agentic tasks.
arXiv:2608. 11152v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern reinforcement learning (RL) post-training pipelines for large language models (LLMs) increasingly combine rollout workloads across multiple domains and feedback paradigms.
