[Paper] How Fast Should a Model Commit to Supervision? Training Reasoning Models on the Tsallis Loss Continuum

Impact: 6/10
Swipe left/right

Summary

This paper addresses the challenge of adapting reasoning models to new tasks with limited output-level supervision, where current methods like RLVR struggle with low initial success probabilities. It introduces a new loss family, $J_Q$, based on the Tsallis $q$-logarithm, which interpolates between exploitation-focused RLVR and density-estimation over latent trajectories. This approach aims to improve the training stability and effectiveness of reasoning models, particularly when starting from a low success rate.
