arXiv:2606. 07074v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep research agents have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in complex information-seeking tasks, yet this power comes at a steep computational cost.
arXiv:2606. 02373v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Search agents are often trained as policies over growing transcripts: the model must decide how to search while also remembering what it has seen, which evidence is useful, which constraints remain open, and which claims have actually been checked.
arXiv:2607. 23765v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve impressive performance across multiple domains, but using the most capable model for every query is prohibitive at scale.
The paper introduces Task Specialization Fine-Tuning (TSFT), an online framework that allocates a limited fine‑tuning budget across multiple task regions in Contextual Reinforcement Learning. TSFT predicts fine‑tuning performance with a simple parametric model and solves the budget allocation problem exactly using integer linear programming. Experiments on combinatorial optimization, continuous control, and LLM fine‑tuning show that TSFT outperforms baselines in task coverage and approaches oracle performance.
arXiv:2607. 13389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) post-training is increasingly used to adapt foundation models for reasoning, planning, and feedback-driven robot-learning pipelines, but constrained post-training resources are often summarized by a single total FLOP budget.
arXiv:2607. 06223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning has become a promising paradigm for improving large language model (LLM) agents on long-horizon search tasks, where the agent must make a sequence of intermediate decisions before receiving a final outcome.
