HISPO: Hierarchical Importance-Sampling Policy Optimization with Entropy-Derived Segments
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has become a central approach for improving mathematical reasoning in language models, but long-form completions introduce a difficult credit-assignment problem: different parts of a solution trace may contribute unevenly to final correctness. Existing policyoptimization objectives for RLVR commonly apply importance-sampling correction at…
