Token-Level Off-Policy Learning for Faithful Generation Under Distribution Shift

We propose Token-Level Off-Policy Labeling (TOPL), an off-policy training paradigm that reframes post-training as a token-level correctness prediction task. Our key intuition is that by training the model to distinguish good and bad tokens in a response, we naturally guide the model towards generating good tokens, while avoiding the pitfalls that come with directly training the model to generate off-policy tokens.

Evolutionary Guided Decoding: Iterative Value Refinement for LLMs

arXiv:2503. 02368v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While guided decoding, especially value-guided methods, has emerged as a cost-effective alternative for controlling language model outputs without re-training models, its effectiveness is limited by the accuracy of the value function.
