arXiv:2603.04135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) effectively scales LLM reasoning but incurs prohibitive computational costs due to its extensive group-based sampling requirement. While recent selective data utilization methods can mitigate this overhead, they could induce estimation bias by altering the underlying sampling distribution, compromising theoretical rigor and convergence behavior. To address this limitation, we propose Dynamic Pruning Policy Optimization (DPPO), a framework that enables dynamic pruning while preserving unbiased gradient estimation through importance sampling-based correction. By incorporating mathematically derived rescaling factors, DPPO significantly accelerates GRPO training without altering the optimization objective of the full-batch baseline. Furthermore, to mitigate the data sparsity induced by pruning, we introduce Dense Prompt Packing, a window-based greedy strategy that maximizes valid token density and hardware utilization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DPPO consistently accelerates training across diverse models and benchmarks. For instance, on Qwen3-4B trained on MATH, DPPO achieves 2.37$\times$ training speedup and outperforms GRPO by 3.36% in average accuracy across six mathematical reasoning benchmarks.

arXiv:2510.07181v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in spatial reasoning, yet they remain fundamentally limited to qualitative precision and lack the computational precision required for real-world robotics. Current approaches fail to leverage metric cues from depth sensors and camera calibration, instead reducing geometric problems to pattern recognition tasks that cannot deliver the centimeter-level accuracy essential for robotic manipulation. We present TIGeR (Tool-Integrated Geometric Reasoning), a novel framework that transforms VLMs from perceptual estimators to geometric computers by enabling them to generate and execute precise geometric computations through external tools. Rather than attempting to internalize complex geometric operations within neural networks, TIGeR empowers models to recognize geometric reasoning requirements, synthesize appropriate computational code, and invoke specialized libraries for exact calculations. To support this paradigm, we introduce TIGeR-300K, a comprehensive tool-invocation-oriented dataset covering point transformations, pose estimation, and spatial compatibility verification, complete with tool invocation sequences and intermediate computations. Through a two-stage training pipeline combining supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement fine-tuning (RFT) with our proposed hierarchical reward design, TIGeR achieves SOTA performance on geometric reasoning benchmarks while demonstrating centimeter-level precision in real-world robotic manipulation tasks.
