CSRP: Chain-of-Thought Reasoning for Chinese Text Correction via Reinforcement Learning with Efficiency-Aware Rewards

arXiv:2606. 00020v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) based Chinese Grammatical Error Correction (CGEC) systems face two critical challenges: general-purpose models lack specialized linguistic priors for subtle grammatical distinctions, and Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) with Maximum Likelihood Estimation fails to optimize for precision-focused metrics, leading to systematic over-correction.

TTPO: Test-Time Policy Optimization

The paper introduces Test‑Time Policy Optimization (TTPO), an approach that enables large language models to improve mathematical reasoning without relying on ground‑truth labels. TTPO uses majority‑vote pseudo‑labels and an asymmetric objective: it distills rollouts that agree with the pseudo‑label via On‑Policy Self‑Distillation and penalizes disagreeing rollouts with Grouped Reinforcement Learning. Token‑level selection further refines the process, down‑weighting already‑converged positions during distillation and penalizing only confident errors during RL. Experiments show that TTPO matches label‑supervised OPSD on five competition‑level benchmarks, boosts Qwen3‑1.7B from 38.0 % to 45.2 % in test‑time training, and achieves significant gains without explicit reasoning steps, while also generalizing well across tasks.
