Unleashing the Reasoning Potential of LLMs by Critique Fine-Tuning on One Problem (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Critique Fine-Tuning (CFT) is a promising paradigm for unlocking the reasoning capabilities of large language models. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that leverages critique data generated from a single math problem to improve reasoning accuracy. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method surpasses one-shot RLVR while requiring 15 to 20 times less compute. |

| Challenge: | Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled strong performance in long-form writing, but current training paradigms remain limited. |
| Approach: | They propose an Adaptive Curriculum Reinforcement Learning framework to advance long-form writing capabilities beyond SFT. |
| Outcome: | Experiments on 7B-scale writer models show that Writing-RL improves long-form writing performance over strong SFT baselines. |

| Challenge: | Existing methods for training reasoning-oriented large language models assume high-resource settings with abundant data. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that integrates high-value general-domain data to promote more diverse exploration. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework matches or surpasses RLVR trained with 32 target-domain samples using 32 target domain samples. |

| Challenge: | Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR) has significantly advanced the complex reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). |
| Approach: | They propose a hybrid-policy optimization approach that synergizes internal exploitation with external data to achieve stronger reasoning capabilities. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on six math reasoning benchmarks and superior performance on out-of distribution reasoning tasks. |
