  1. The Entropy Mechanism of Reinforcement Learning for Reasoning Language Models (2025 · 101 citations)
    Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards is now a main way to improve LLM reasoning, but scaling it hits a recurring problem. Without explicit regularization, policy entropy falls to almost zero within the first training steps. The model becomes overconfident, stops exploring and its validation accuracy stalls.
  2. Free Process Rewards without Process Labels (2024 · 58 citations)
    Process reward models (PRMs) score each step of a reasoning chain and often beat outcome reward models (ORMs), but they need step-level labels.
