Selective-Advantage Entropy-Adaptive Horizon GRPO: Asymmetric Token-Level Discounting for Efficient Reinforcement Learning of Language Models

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2606. 05434v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimisation (GRPO) has emerged as an effective reinforcement-learning algorithm for aligning language models on reasoning tasks, but it treats every token position and every sampled rollout symmetrically.

ExTra: Exploratory Trajectory Optimization for Language Model Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 24994v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) for language-model reasoning can fail at both extremes of task difficulty: easy prompts often produce all-correct, low-diversity rollout groups with little gradient signal, while hard prompts can produce all-incorrect groups with no positive reward.
