Abstract

Reinforcement learning has become a widely used approach to post-training large language models. In a typical implementation, learning is off-policy: The policy generating the responses differs from the policy being trained because of training-inference mismatch or policy staleness in asynchronous training. This discrepancy is commonly addressed by importance sampling, whose ratio is usually regul
