  • 引入推理拓扑与不确定性信号,不仅看答案对错,还评估推理过程质量。
  • 在数学推理、问答等任务中,相比DPO提升胜率与忠实度,接近甚至超越PPO表现。
  • 无需强化学习,适合作为现有对齐流程的轻量级升级,尤其适合长文本和多模态场景。

对齐大语言模型与人类偏好通常采用基于人类反馈的强化学习(RLHF)或更简单的直接偏好优化(DPO)。尽管DPO稳定且无需强化学习,但其将偏好视为扁平的胜败信号,对因脆弱思维链产生的噪声或脆弱偏好敏感。本文提出TUR-DPO,一种考虑拓扑结构与不确定性的DPO改进方法,通过提取轻量级推理拓扑,结合语义忠实性、效用与拓扑质量构建校准的不确定性信号。一个可学习的小型奖励因子化这些信号,并融入不确定性加权的DPO目标,保持无强化学习特性,仅依赖固定或移动参考策略。实验表明,在多个7-8B开源模型及涵盖数学推理、事实问答、摘要生成和有益/无害对话的基准上,TUR-DPO相较DPO显著提升裁判胜率、忠实度与校准性,同时保持训练简单性,避免在线回放。进一步观察到在多模态与长上下文设置中持续增益,且在以推理为核心的任务中达到甚至超过PPO表现,同时维持操作简便性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences is commonly done via reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) with Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) or, more simply, via Direct Preference Optimization (DPO). While DPO is stable and RL-free, it treats preferences as flat winner vs. loser signals and is sensitive to noisy or brittle preferences arising from fragile chains of thought. We propose TUR-DPO, a topology- and uncertainty-aware variant of DPO that rewards how answers are derived, not only what they say, by eliciting lightweight reasoning topologies and combining semantic faithfulness, utility, and topology quality into a calibrated uncertainty signal. A small learnable reward is factorized over these signals and incorporated into an uncertainty-weighted DPO objective that remains RL-free and relies only on a fixed or moving reference policy. Empirically, across open 7-8B models and benchmarks spanning mathematical reasoning, factual question answering, summarization, and helpful/harmless dialogue, TUR-DPO improves judge win-rates, faithfulness, and calibration relative to DPO while preserving training simplicity and avoiding online rollouts. We further observe consistent gains in multimodal and long-context settings, and show that TUR-DPO matches or exceeds PPO on reasoning-centric tasks while maintaining operational simplicity.
