VLA-Precision introduces an efficient real‑world online reinforcement learning framework for vision‑language‑action (VLA) models, featuring the Asymmetric Co‑Bootstrapping (ACoB) algorithm and the ACoB‑Stream architecture. ACoB uses asymmetric co‑bootstrapping across timescales to rapidly improve policy performance while refining value estimates, thereby reducing policy drift. ACoB‑Stream enables large VLA models to run with up to 10.9× higher throughput and computational efficiency, achieving a 98.3 % mean success rate on nine high‑precision chemistry tasks in under 46 minutes per task.

EBRL is an asynchronous embodied reinforcement learning training system that overlaps rollout and training stages, pipelines simulation and generation across environment groups, and eliminates synchronization stalls. It employs a fine‑grained resource manager that pools CPU cores and GPU streaming multiprocessors, dynamically adjusting resource quotas and batch sizes based on stage profiles and runtime feedback. Experiments on RLinf with four policies and four simulation benchmarks show EBRL improves rollout throughput by 1.30–3.47× and training convergence by 2.5× over state‑of‑the‑art embodied RL systems.

LoongSage is a lightweight, fully asynchronous reinforcement learning framework designed for large language models that perform agentic tasks. It integrates with Megatron for distributed training and SGLang for high‑throughput inference, centralizing orchestration in a single controller and using Ray actors for GPU components. The framework introduces AgentFlow for unified execution of white‑box and black‑box agents, sliding‑window strategies to limit trajectory staleness, TransferMesh for efficient weight synchronization, and a memory‑efficient Teacher Manager that supports multi‑teacher on‑policy distillation. Experiments across four training runs show steady reward improvement, controlled train‑inference gaps, and sustained hardware utilization by eliminating synchronous idle periods.

ReFlow is a system‑algorithm co‑designed framework for efficient reinforcement learning (RL) post‑training of large language models (LLMs). It introduces replay‑driven decoupling, allowing recent trajectories to be reused multiple times to amortize rollout costs while limiting policy staleness. The architecture features a dual replay cycle, an elastic resource pool, and an adaptive scheduler, achieving up to 2.06× higher training throughput compared to existing synchronous and asynchronous RL systems without sacrificing model performance.
