A Zeroth-Order Paradigm for LLM Preference Alignment

Researchers propose ComPO, a zeroth-order comparison-based preference alignment method with convergence guarantees that mitigates likelihood displacement in LLMs.

ComPO extracts directional information from preference pairs via comparison oracles instead of optimizing a differentiable preference loss, addressing likelihood displacement in direct alignment methods. The paper establishes convergence guarantees for the offline scheme and introduces an online variant with reverse-KL control using unlabeled policy generations. Experiments on Mistral, Llama, Gemma-2, Gemma-3, and Qwen3 models show improvements over existing direct alignment methods, including length-controlled win rates.

A Zeroth-Order Paradigm for LLM Preference Alignment

ComPO is a zeroth-order preference alignment method using comparison oracles to mitigate likelihood displacement across Mistral, Llama, Gemma, and Qwen3 models.

The paper proposes Comparison-based Preference Optimization (ComPO), a zeroth-order alignment method that extracts directional information from preference pairs with small likelihood margins without directly optimizing a differentiable preference loss. The authors prove convergence guarantees for the offline scheme and performance guarantees for a constrained online variant with reverse-KL control. Experiments on Mistral, Llama, Gemma-2, Qwen3, and Gemma-3 show improvements over existing direct alignment methods, including length-controlled win rates, with pair-level diagnostics consistent with mitigating likelihood displacement.

Environments as Scaffold: Enriching Feedback to Bootstrap Self-Evolving Agents in Long-Horizon Tasks

Researchers propose Feedback-Enriched Environments (FEEs) that reduce reward sparsity and improve RL training of Qwen3-based agents on SciWorld and BFCL.

The paper proposes shifting from agent-side warmup (SFT) to environment-side adaptation via Feedback-Enriched Environments to address severe reward sparsity in RL training of long-horizon LLM agents. A pilot study defines a feedback strategy that transitions from action guidance to observation enrichment in later training stages. Large-scale experiments on SciWorld and BFCL across Qwen3 model scales and GRPO, GSPO, and DAPO show consistent gains, plus stabilized training dynamics and proactive exploration.
