arXiv:2608. 01522v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Teaching a language model a skill it has not mastered is obstructed by three recurring difficulties: training data is scarce, ground-truth reasoning traces are usually unavailable, and models often exhibit an apparent ceiling beyond which additional data yields no further improvement.

Post-training of reasoning language models is commonly driven by supervised distillation and reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards. Distillation often relies on chain-of-thought annotations that are expensive to obtain and may themselves be noisy, incomplete, or partially incorrect; even when the final solution is correct, an imperfect rationale can interfere with learning.
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as an effective method for enhancing the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). However, existing methods suffer from insufficient precision in feedback on generated answer trajectories and exhibit the phenomenon of problem difficulty drift.
AdaThinking-E introduces a reinforcement learning framework that uses one-token entropy regulation to enable large language models to decide adaptively whether to engage in deep reasoning. By measuring entropy in the predicted probability distribution at key decision tokens, the model learns to explore different thinking strategies during training and converge to confident, efficient decision policies. Experiments show the method improves accuracy on complex tasks while reducing computational overhead on simpler ones across various document reasoning benchmarks.
