Large language model (LLM) agents require post-training methods that can improve long-horizon decision making from environment feedback. However, existing agentic post-training pipelines often treat data curation as a fixed preprocessing step, focusing mainly on data augmentation while neglecting filtering, refinement, and adaptation to downstream failures.

Recent advances in post-training Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly rely on Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) or On-Policy Self-Distillation (OPSD). While OPSD provides dense, logit-level supervision, it inherently suffers from exposure bias due to the privileged information of the self-teacher.
The paper introduces Stable-MM-R1, a framework that stabilizes reinforcement learning for multimodal reasoning by addressing training instability and entropy collapse. It proposes Potential‑Aware Query Mining (PAQM) to filter data toward high‑potential samples and Hybrid Stratified Replay (HSR) to restructure batches using path entropy and reward stratification, reusing stability anchors and hard negatives. The method demonstrates superior performance on complex reasoning tasks compared to strong baselines.

Aligning large language models to human-centered objectives is difficult when targets are non-executable and context-dependent, limiting reliable verification and scalable supervision. Although synthe...
