用鲁棒评分机制提升视觉语言任务的强化学习效果
Reinforcement Learning with Robust Rubric Rewards

- 将评分从任务级细化到准则级,分路径执行验证与判断
- 在15个基准上提升4.7分,超越基线模型和官方推理模型
- 通过最小暴露策略防作弊,适合复杂多标准评估场景
尽管可验证奖励强化学习(RLVR)在确定性可检验任务中表现良好,但许多视觉语言任务仅部分可验证,需多标准监督(如感知细节、推理步骤、约束条件)。评分体系为细粒度监督提供了自然接口,但其有效性依赖在线强化学习中的执行准确性。本文提出鲁棒评分奖励强化学习(RLR³),将RLVR从任务级验证扩展至准则级验证。RLR³通过双路径执行:由大模型作为提取器配合确定性验证器,或由大模型作为裁判处理不可验证准则。为确保评分真实,引入最小暴露策略,隐藏真实答案给提取器,隐藏图像给裁判。同时采用分层聚合,优先关键准则,并缓解滚动组内得分饱和问题。在Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B上对15个基准进行评估,RLR³持续优于RLVR,相较基线模型提升4.7分,超越官方指令转思维模型差距。受控审计证实,确定性验证与最小暴露显著降低可被利用的误报率。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
While Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) is effective for deterministically checkable tasks, many vision-language tasks are partially verifiable, demanding multi-criteria supervision (e.g., perceptual details, reasoning steps, and constraints). Rubrics provide a natural interface for this fine-grained supervision, but their effectiveness depends on the execution accuracy during online RL. We propose Reinforcement Learning with Robust Rubric Rewards ($\text{RLR}^3$), extending RLVR from task-level verification to criterion-level verification. $\text{RLR}^3$ routes instance-specific rubrics through two execution paths: an LLM-as-an-extractor paired with a deterministic verifier, or an LLM-as-a-Judge for non-verifiable criteria. To ensure faithful scoring, $\text{RLR}^3$ introduce a minimal exposure strategy that masks ground truths from extractors and images from judges. Furthermore, $\text{RLR}^3$ employs hierarchical aggregation to prioritize essential criteria over additional criteria, and mitigates score saturation within rollout groups. Evaluated on Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B across 15 benchmarks, $\text{RLR}^3$ consistently outperforms RLVR, yielding a 4.7-point improvement over the base model and exceeding the official instruct-to-thinking model gap. Controlled audits confirm our deterministic verification and minimal exposure significantly reduce exploitable false positives.
