arXiv:2602. 02572v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing alignment methods directly use the reward model learned from user preference data to optimize an LLM policy, subject to KL regularization with respect to the base policy.

arXiv:2604. 17415v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward-based fine-tuning steers a pretrained diffusion or flow-based generative model toward higher-reward samples while remaining close to the pretrained model.
arXiv:2608. 00175v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning (RL) agents achieve strong performance by optimizing scalar reward functions.
arXiv:2505. 12843v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) relies on reward models to align large language models with human preferences.
arXiv:2602. 17658v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward modeling is central to alignment pipelines such as RLHF, RLAIF, and PPO-based policy optimization, yet its reliability is constrained by limited and heterogeneous human preference data that are expensive to collect at scale.
arXiv:2606. 01382v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Preference alignment is central to improving large language models, but standard reward-based formulations can be restrictive when human preferences are cyclic, non-transitive, or otherwise not representable by a scalar reward.
arXiv:2607. 16240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Direct Alignment Algorithms (DAAs) such as DPO have become a common way to post-train and align LLMs with human preferences.
