In-Context Learning as Implicit Policy Gradient

arXiv:2607. 23153v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work has shown that large language models (LLMs) can iteratively improve their outputs by incorporating generated samples and their corresponding evaluation scores as in-context examples.

Implicit Actor Critic Coupling via a Supervised Learning Framework for RLVR

arXiv:2509. 02522v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) have empowered large language models (LLMs) to tackle challenging reasoning tasks such as mathematics and programming, however existing RLVR methods often suffer from sparse reward signals and unstable policy gradient updates inherent to RL-based approaches.

Contrastive Reinforced Policy Optimization via Privileged Self-Distillation

arXiv:2607. 28026v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in post-training Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly rely on Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) or On-Policy Self-Distillation (OPSD).
