DeepRefine: Agentic Knowledge Refinement via Reinforcement Learning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

DeepRefine is a reinforcement learning framework that improves the quality of pre‑constructed structured knowledge bases—such as knowledge graphs or LLM‑Wikis—by engaging in multi‑turn interactions with the base. It performs abductive diagnosis to locate defects, then applies targeted refinement actions to incrementally update the knowledge base. The system uses a Gain‑Beyond‑Draft reward to train its refinement policy end‑to‑end, achieving consistent downstream performance gains over strong baselines.

From Memorization to Absorption: Mixed-Policy RL for Continual Knowledge Injection

The paper introduces Golden-GRPO Injection (GRIN), a three-stage self‑learning framework that uses a mixed‑policy reinforcement learning algorithm to inject knowledge into large language models. GRIN injects a golden answer to provide learning signals even when on‑policy rollouts fail on novel facts, and is evaluated on two new document‑level benchmarks—Blank and Counter—that test novel acquisition and counterfactual overwrite. Experiments show that mixed‑policy RL enables knowledge absorption beyond what supervised fine‑tuning can achieve, with GRIN outperforming SFT and other RL baselines on harder question types while matching them on basic fact recall.
