The paper introduces a method to enhance large language model (LLM) exploration in Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) by guiding the target model with partial reasoning trajectories from smaller, weaker language models. This weak-model guidance disrupts over‑confidence, preserves generative diversity, and mitigates entropy collapse without extra fine‑tuning or complex reward designs. Experiments on mathematical benchmarks show consistent improvements over vanilla RLVR, especially as the number of allowed attempts ($k$) increases, indicating broader reasoning coverage.

The paper introduces DEEPO, a Dual-Entropy Enhanced Policy Optimization method designed to mitigate hallucination in multimodal large language models (MLLMs). It addresses two weaknesses in reinforcement learning: (1) hard queries with high semantic entropy produce uniformly wrong samples, erasing advantage signals, and (2) confident-but-wrong tokens become invisible to gradients as the policy sharpens. DEEPO combines semantic‑entropy‑triggered expert prefixes to inject grounded continuations and Renyi preconditioning to counter logit saturation, yielding significant hallucination reduction while maintaining accuracy and training stability.
