  • 仅修改正确推理路径,局部删除重复或无关内容。
  • 在5个数学基准上提升准确率与效率的平衡,保持兼容性。
  • 适合需要高效推理且关注内容质量的研究者。

强化学习后训练虽提升了大语言模型的推理能力,但常导致推理过程冗长、重复或语义模糊。现有高效推理方法多依赖显式长度预算或长度感知奖励,对中间推理内容监督较弱。本文提出CLORE,一种基于内容级优化的框架,通过编辑正确的策略回放轨迹来提升推理效率。CLORE利用外部增强模型删除重复段落、难以理解或与任务无关的内容,以及解答后的冗余推理,同时保留最终答案。生成的增强-原始样本对与标准策略梯度训练一同,通过无参考辅助的DPO目标进行优化。通过仅在正确轨迹上进行增强并执行局部删除,CLORE使编辑后的轨迹仍贴近策略分布,缓解了离策略偏差问题。在DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B和Qwen2.5-Math-7B上跨五个数学推理基准的实验表明,CLORE改善了准确率-效率权衡,并兼容GRPO、DAPO、Training Efficient和ThinkPrune。内容分析进一步显示,CLORE减少了重复推理、不可读内容和答案后的探索行为,支持内容级监督作为长度控制的补充方向。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Reinforcement learning post-training has improved the reasoning ability of large language models, but often produces unnecessarily long, repetitive, or semantically opaque reasoning traces. Existing efficient reasoning methods mainly regulate response length through explicit budgets or length-aware rewards, leaving intermediate reasoning content weakly supervised. We propose CLORE, a content-level optimization framework that improves reasoning efficiency by editing correct on-policy rollouts. CLORE uses an external augmentation model to delete repetitive segments, illegible or task-irrelevant content, and superfluous reasoning after the solution is established, while preserving the final answer. The resulting augmented--original pairs are optimized with an auxiliary reference-free DPO objective alongside standard policy-gradient training. By restricting augmentation to correct trajectories and performing local deletion, CLORE keeps edited rollouts close to the policy distribution and mitigates off-policy mismatch. Experiments on DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B and Qwen2.5-Math-7B across five mathematical reasoning benchmarks show that CLORE improves the accuracy--efficiency trade-off and remains compatible with GRPO, DAPO, Training Efficient, and ThinkPrune. Content-level analyses further show that CLORE reduces repetitive reasoning, illegible content, and post-answer exploration, supporting content-level supervision as a complementary direction to length-level control.
