Learning Temporally-Aware Sample Weights for Preference Optimization (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for preference optimization rely on static functions of instantaneous model states and ignore temporal learning dynamics. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that meta-learns adaptive weights using three temporal features: reward margin evolution, learning volatility, and reference deviation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves statistically significant improvements over baselines on models ranging from 7B to 70B parameters. |
