Reinforcement learning for multi-turn search reasoning typically relies on terminal outcome rewards, which cannot distinguish useful, redundant, and harmful intermediate interactions. We propose LOTAPO , a self-generated process-supervision method based on backward leave-one-turn attribution.

arXiv:2608. 12764v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep search agents operate over trajectories spanning dozens of steps, yet standard reinforcement learning provides only a single outcome reward per trajectory, which is far too sparse for effective credit assignment.
