Copy Less, Ground More: Overcoming Repetitive Copying in Long-Context Reasoning via Evidence-Aware Reinforcement Learning
arXiv cs.AI · Published · 3 min read
In 30 seconds
- What happened
- Researchers identified repetitive copying in long-context LLMs and developed GEAR, a reinforcement learning method that rewards grounding in relevant evidence while penalizing distractor text.
- Why it matters
- Matters for engineers building or fine-tuning large language models for long-context reasoning tasks where accuracy and efficiency are critical.
- Watch out
- The method requires automated evidence annotation of training data, and improvements plateau at longer contexts; real-world applicability depends on annotation quality.
