ACPO: Asymmetric Credit Policy Optimization via Mode-Local Entropy Surrogate

arXiv:2607. 03126v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Outcome-supervised reinforcement learning scales to verifiable reasoning tasks, but trajectory-level rewards assign the same outcome signal to all sampled tokens, overlooking their unequal contributions to the reasoning process.

ACPO: Adaptive Credit Policy Optimization via Fine-Grained Surrogate Entropy

arXiv:2607. 03126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has substantially improved the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs), but sparse outcome rewards still make token-level credit assignment difficult.

STARE: Surprisal-Guided Token-Level Advantage Reweighting for Policy Entropy Stability

arXiv:2606. 19236v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards algorithms like GRPO have emerged as the dominant post-training paradigm for complex reasoning in LLMs, yet commonly suffer from policy entropy collapse during training.
