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:2603.02281v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent studies show that quantum neural networks (QNNs) generalize well in few-shot regimes. To extend this advantage to large-scale tasks, we propose Q-LoRA, a quantum-enhanced fine-tuning scheme that integrates lightweight QNNs into the low-rank adaptation (LoRA) adapter. Applied to AI-generated content (AIGC) detection, Q-LoRA consistently outperforms standard LoRA under few-shot settings. We analyze the source of this improvement and identify two possible structural inductive biases from QNNs: (i) phase-aware representations, which encode richer information across orthogonal amplitude-phase components, and (ii) norm-constrained transformations, which stabilize optimization via inherent orthogonality. However, Q-LoRA incurs non-trivial overhead due to quantum simulation. Motivated by our analysis, we further introduce H-LoRA, a fully classical variant that applies the Hilbert transform within the LoRA adapter to retain similar phase structure and constraints. Experiments on few-shot AIGC detection show that both Q-LoRA and H-LoRA outperform standard LoRA by over 5% accuracy, with H-LoRA achieving comparable accuracy at significantly lower cost in this task.
