通过在隐空间注入噪声，提升视觉语言模型的推理能力。

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) improves the reasoning ability of vision-language models (VLMs), and diversifying the rollouts within each optimization group amplifies its gains. Existing approaches diversify through decoding temperature or pixel-space image distortion; we ask whether the perturbation belongs in the model's latent space instead. We introduce Noise-Contrastive GRPO (NC-GRPO), which injects scale-calibrated Gaussian noise into the last hidden layer of the prompt-encoding pass for half of each rollout group, branching those rollouts from a displaced departure state. Branches that reach the answer despite the displacement are reinforced over those derailed by it, converting sensitivity at the branch point into policy-gradient signal; the objective, reward, and inference protocol are untouched. On Qwen2.5-VL-7B trained on Geometry3K, NC-GRPO significantly improves out-of-domain mathematical reasoning over vanilla GRPO across five held-out benchmarks (pooled McNemar $p \le 0.001$) while also improving in-domain accuracy and hallucination robustness -- the latter an axis on which image-space noise regresses even while posting a larger OOD average on perception-heavy benchmarks. Mechanism ablations indicate that independent stochastic diversity, not noise budget or direction, is the active ingredient, and a noise-scale study exposes a dial between reasoning specialization and general capability. NC-GRPO is designed to be modality-agnostic and integrates into a standard RLVR pipeline as a ~50-line change to the inference engine.
