Learning to Ask: Information Acquisition for SLM-LLM Collaboration, under a budget

The paper proposes a new framework for collaboration between a small language model (SLM) and a large language model (LLM) that treats the interaction as an information acquisition problem under an API budget constraint. Instead of delegating reasoning tasks, the SLM remains the primary reasoner and selectively queries the LLM advisor with targeted questions, using a three-stage RLVR approach to decide when to call the advisor, how to phrase queries, and how to integrate the responses. Experiments on mathematical reasoning and coding tasks show that this strategy improves the performance–cost tradeoff compared to existing baselines and can transfer to other advisor model families without additional training.

CARL: Constraint-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Planning with LLMs

CARL: Constraint-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Planning with LLMs

Despite their strong reasoning capabilities and extensive world knowledge, Large Language Models (LLMs) frequently generate plans that violate task constraints, undermining their reliability in real-world applications. This deficiency arises from a lack of systematic mechanisms to incorporate constraint information during the generation process.
