Abstract
This paper presents the PingAn-NLP system developed for SemEval-2026 Task 9, focusing on multilingual online polarization identification across 18 languages. We pro-pose a multi-stage optimization framework combining Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO). To overcome label imbalance and linguistic nuances, we utilized synthetic reasoning chain augmentation via a high-capacity teacher model (Qwen3-235B) and developed a Smart-Tradeoff reward mechanism to balance precision and recall during reinforcement learning. A language-aware tiered ensemble voting strategy was further implemented to optimize inference performance across diverse linguistic tracks. Our 8B-GRPO-Vote configuration achieved the highest Macro-F1 scores among our experimental variants in 7 out of 18 languages. Officially, our system secured second place in the Bengali, English, Odia, and Turkish tracks.
Alation studies reveal a strong synergy between POS features and CRF decoding, with the combined approach yielding the best single-model performance, and ensembling models trained with different objectives improves both overall F1 score and discontinuous MWE scores, demonstrating the importance of training diversity for capturing non-adjacent syntactic patterns.

The results show that hybrid ensemble methods can improve token-level accuracy in low-resource POS tagging, while also revealing a trade-off between frequent-tag accuracy and rare-tag robustness.

Error analysis shows that a non-trivial fraction of failures are placeholder strings caused by API errors rather than incorrect generations, and that surface-level mismatches (verbosity, ortho-graphic variation) account for many of the remaining errors.
A morphological barrier is shown: while pivot-based adaptation facilitates transfer for distant languages through script alignment, it induces negative transfer in morphologically complex agglutinative languages like Gondi.
