MiMo-V2.6: Scaling Reinforcement Learning Towards Self-Improvement

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

MiMo‑V2.6 is an omni‑modal reinforcement learning framework that scales compute to advance large foundation models toward self‑improvement. It trains on a broad multimodal corpus before RL, then scales RL along three axes: larger batches and throughput, diverse environments across code, general, visual, and cyber domains, and enhanced grader compute for better reward signals. The system incorporates infrastructure such as a frozen MoE router, multi‑layer defense against reward hacking, unified trajectory representation, high‑concurrency rollout, and training‑inference consistency, and it is open‑source to support reproducibility and further research.

Learning Generalizable Behaviors for Terminal Agents

The paper introduces the Agentic Compositional Generalization hypothesis, suggesting that reinforcement learning (RL) primarily refines high‑level decision‑making behaviors that orchestrate pre‑trained low‑level skills, rather than teaching new domain‑specific skills from scratch. It proposes River, a training recipe that enhances reward quality by filtering low‑quality synthetic environments and adding process‑level behavior regularization. Using River, RL‑trained agents outperform other open‑source 8B models on four terminal‑agent benchmarks, achieving significant gains with fewer than 30% of the training environments.
