- 适合想提升模型推理能力且缺乏标注资源的研究者。
强化学习(RL)在提升大语言模型(LLM)推理能力方面展现出巨大潜力,但其成功高度依赖人工标注数据和可验证奖励,限制了可扩展性和通用性。近期自对弈强化学习方法受游戏和围棋成功启发,试图在无须人工标注数据的情况下增强LLM推理能力,但主要依赖有基础的环境反馈(如Python解释器或游戏引擎),难以推广至通用领域。为此,我们提出多智能体演化框架(Multi-Agent Evolve, MAE),使LLM能自主演化以解决数学、推理及通用知识问答等多样化任务。该框架基于三个交互式智能体(提议者、求解者、评判者)构成的三元组,均源自同一LLM,并通过强化学习优化其行为。提议者生成问题,求解者尝试解答,评判者评估二者表现并共同进化。在Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct上的实验表明,MAE在多个基准上实现了平均4.54%的性能提升。结果表明,MAE是一种可扩展、数据高效的方法,能显著增强LLM的通用推理能力,且对人工标注监督需求极低。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Reinforcement Learning (RL) has demonstrated significant potential in enhancing the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). However, the success of RL for LLMs heavily relies on human-curated datasets and verifiable rewards, which limit their scalability and generality. Recent Self-Play RL methods, inspired by the success of the paradigm in games and Go, aim to enhance LLM reasoning capabilities without human-annotated data. However, their methods primarily depend on a grounded environment for feedback (e.g., a Python interpreter or a game engine); extending them to general domains remains challenging. To address these challenges, we propose Multi-Agent Evolve (MAE), a framework that enables LLMs to self-evolve in solving diverse tasks, including mathematics, reasoning, and general knowledge Q&A. The core design of MAE is based on a triplet of interacting agents (Proposer, Solver, Judge) that are instantiated from a single LLM, and applies reinforcement learning to optimize their behaviors. The Proposer generates questions, the Solver attempts solutions, and the Judge evaluates both while co-evolving. Experiments on Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct demonstrate that MAE achieves an average improvement of 4.54% on multiple benchmarks. These results highlight MAE as a scalable, data-efficient method for enhancing the general reasoning abilities of LLMs with minimal reliance on human-curated supervision.
