改进大模型推理的强化学习方法，提升准确率与训练效率

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR), particularly Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), has advanced LLM reasoning. However, GRPO suffers from three credit assignment failures: uniform token-level granularity that ignores heterogeneous informational value, uniform polarity that penalizes correct steps and rewards incorrect ones, and zero-variance collapse that erases outcome-driven gradients. We systematically quantify these failures, revealing highly non-uniform token informativeness, widespread step-level polarity misalignment, and substantial training waste. To address these limitations, we propose Entropy-Progress Aligned GRPO (EP-GRPO), a framework that mines the model's intrinsic information flow for dense, self-supervised guidance. EP-GRPO integrates entropy-gated modulation to prioritize high entropy decision pivots, implicit process signals from policy divergence anchored to outcome advantages for directional token-level feedback without external reward models, and cumulative entropy mapping that enables progress-aligned advantage normalization, naturally maintaining gradient flow under zero reward variance. Extensive experiments on mathematical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that EP-GRPO achieves superior accuracy and efficiency compared to GRPO and its variants. The code will be available.
