Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has been effective on tasks with structured solutions like math and coding, but its reliance on simple, rule-based verifiers creates a fundamental bottleneck. We find their applicability is surprisingly narrow even in structured domains, a lim...

Generating coherent and controllable long-form content remains a persistent challenge for Large Language Models (LLMs). While reasoning-enhanced models have demonstrated success in logic-intensive domains, our evaluation reveals that they suffer from a severe length collapse in open-ended writing...

Large reasoning models (LRMs) have achieved remarkable performance in complex reasoning tasks, driven by their powerful inference-time scaling capability.However, LRMs often suffer from overthinking, which results in substantial computational redundancy and significantly reduces efficiency.Early-...

Despite the potential of multi-turn self-reflection to improve LLM reasoning, its effectiveness in practice is severely constrained by a failure mode we term the Echo Trap.Specifically, this phenomenon gives rise to two coupled problems: (1) the model becomes limited by its inherent capabilities...

The ability to model sparse and underspecified rewards, characteristic of human preferences, is fundamental to scaling Reinforcement Learning (RL). Current preference-based reward modeling largely relies on verifiable rewards, where human-annotated labels define rule-based signals. However, these...

The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) is reshaping multimodel models, with speech synthesis being a prominent application. However, existing approaches often underutilize the linguistic intelligence of these models, typically failing to leverage their powerful instruction-following capabilitie...

Large reasoning language models such as OpenAI-o1 and Deepseek-R1 have recently attracted widespread attention due to their impressive task-solving abilities. However, the enormous model size and the generation of lengthy thought chains introduce significant reasoning costs and response latency....

Large reasoning models (LRMs) have achieved strong performance enhancement through scaling test time computation, but due to the inherent limitations of the underlying language models, they still have shortcomings in tasks that require precise computation and extensive knowledge reserves. Tool-In...

Implicit In-Context Learning compresses demonstration examples into a single context vector and injects it into the model’s activation space, achieving few-shot-level performance at near zero-shot inference cost. However, existing approaches typically aggregate demonstrations from all classes int...
