# 📖Introduction |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
LUFFY is a reinforcement learning framework that bridges the gap between zero-RL and imitation learning by incorporating off-policy reasoning traces into the training process. Built upon GRPO, LUFFY combines on-policy rollouts with off-policy demonstrations during advantage estimation and introduces **policy shaping** via regularized importance sampling to emphasize low-probability yet crucial actions. |
|
|
|
### Key Highlights: |
|
- **Off-Policy Guidance:** Seamlessly integrates external reasoning traces to bootstrap learning from stronger models. |
|
- **Dynamic Balance:** Learns when to imitate and when to explore, adapting over the course of training. |
|
- **Policy Shaping:** Emphasizes important actions often ignored in standard policy gradients, enabling better generalization. |

## Inference |
|
|
|
Here’s an example of using LUFFY for inference: |
|
|
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer |
|
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams |
|
|
|
model_path="Elliott/LUFFY-Qwen-Math-7B-Zero" |
|
|
|
question = "which number is larger? 9.11 or 9.9?" |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path) |
|
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": question}] |
|
chat = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True) |
|
|
|
llm = LLM(model=model_path) |
|
params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.6, max_tokens=8192) |
|
outputs = llm.generate([chat], params) |
|
print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text) |
|
``` |
|

# 📃Evaluation |
|
|
|
LUFFY is evaluated on six competition-level benchmarks, achieving state-of-the-art results among all zero-RL methods. It surpasses both on-policy RL and imitation learning (SFT), especially in generalization: |
