arXiv:2607. 16169v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Muon is competitive with AdamW in large-scale pre-training, but its value for reinforcement-learning (RL) post-training remains unclear.

arXiv:2606. 05885v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon LLM agents require reinforcement learning methods that can assign credit to intermediate decisions under sparse and delayed rewards.
arXiv:2607. 16244v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training multi-turn evidence-reading agents with outcome-only reinforcement learning is unstable because intermediate turns receive little direct credit.
arXiv:2607. 27787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning from verifiable rewards (RLVR) for mathematical reasoning suffers from a structural blind spot: on "cliff" prompts-those on which every sampled rollout in a group fails-the group-normalized advantage is identically zero, so GRPO produces no gradient on precisely the prompts at the frontier of the model's capability.
Reinforcement learning from verifiable rewards (RLVR) for mathematical reasoning suffers from a structural blind spot: on "cliff" prompts-those on which every sampled rollout in a group fails-the group-normalized advantage is identically zero, so GRPO produces no gradient on precisely the prompts at the frontier of the model's capability. We introduce LoRA Scaffolded Policy Optimization (LSPO), a sampling-time mechanism that recovers this lost gradient.
arXiv:2607. 09375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Mach-Mind-4-Flash, a 35B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) agentic model with 3B activated parameters.
arXiv:2608. 03941v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Muon is a recent optimizer that orthogonalizes the update to each weight matrix with a Newton-Schulz iteration, which performs steepest descent under the spectral norm.
