arXiv:2603. 03291v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward Models (RMs) are crucial for online alignment of language models (LMs) with human preferences.
arXiv:2505. 12843v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) relies on reward models to align large language models with human preferences.
arXiv:2604. 07343v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pluralistic alignment has emerged as a critical frontier in the development of Large Language Models (LLMs), with reward models (RMs) serving as a central mechanism for capturing diverse human values.
arXiv:2607. 03248v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The alignment of large language models with human preferences is commonly achieved through Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback or Direct Preference Optimization.
arXiv:2608. 03875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Designing effective reward functions remains a major bottleneck in Reinforcement Learning (RL).
arXiv:2606. 00334v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Various language domains have undergone remarkable changes in recent years; these shifts are largely attributed to the advent of Large Language Models and their misalignment with natural language usage.
arXiv:2601. 08097v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward modeling is essential for aligning large language models with human preferences, yet predominant architectures rely on a static pooling strategy to condense sequences into scalar scores.
arXiv:2606. 04807v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mitigating social bias in Large Language Models (LLMs) presents a distinct alignment challenge: unlike verifiable tasks, bias lacks a single ground truth, creating a high-variance, subjective reward landscape.
Mitigating social bias in Large Language Models (LLMs) presents a distinct alignment challenge: unlike verifiable tasks, bias lacks a single ground truth, creating a high-variance, subjective reward landscape. Previous preference-based fine-tuning methods have major trade-offs: Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is limited by the lack of exploration inherent in offline training, while Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) can lead to training instability due to potentially unreliable critic estimates.
arXiv:2509. 03647v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) increasingly serve as automated evaluators, yet they suffer from "self-preference bias": a tendency to favor their own outputs over those of other models.
arXiv:2606. 18606v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: It is essential for large language model (LLM) technology to serve many different cultural sub-communities in a manner that is acceptable to each community.
arXiv:2607. 24484v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies what discriminatively trained reward models (RMs) memorize by measuring counterfactual memorization on two human preference datasets.
arXiv:2608. 10209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feedback signals used to train Large Language Models (LLMs) are the primary driver of their behavior and our main lever for instilling alignment with human values and objectives.
