TL;DR
This work introduces an evolutionary, task-agnostic, strategy-guided, executably-checkable data synthesis framework that, from minimal seed supervision, jointly synthesizes problems, diverse candidate solutions, and verification artifacts, and iteratively discovers strategies via a consistency-based evaluator that enforces agreement be-tween human-annotated and strategy-induced checks.
Abstract
Reliable verifiable data has become a key driver of capability gains in modern language models, enabling stable reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards and effective distillation that transfers competence across math, coding, and agentic tasks. Yet constructing generalizable synthetic verifiable data remains difficult due to hallucination-prone generation, and weak or trivial verification artifacts that fail to separate strong from weak solutions. Existing approaches often rely on task-specific heuristics or post-hoc filters that do not transfer across domains and lack a principled, universal evaluator of verifiability. In this work, we introduce an evolutionary, task-agnostic, strategy-guided, executably-checkable data synthesis framework that, from minimal seed supervision, jointly synthesizes problems, diverse candidate solutions, and verification artifacts, and iteratively discovers strategies via a consistency-based evaluator that enforces agreement be-tween human-annotated and strategy-induced checks. This pipeline upgrades filtering into principled synthesis: it reliably assembles coherent, verifiable training instances and generalizes without domain-specific rules. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach under both RLVR and model distillation training paradigms. The re-sults show that training with our synthesized data yields significant improvements on both the LiveCodeBench and AgentBench-OS tasks, highlighting the robust generalization of our framework 1 .
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed for nuanced content safety and moderation tasks, yet they remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks and out-of-distribution edge cases. Traditional active learning and manual annotation fail to scale against the complexity and volume of novel multimodal...

This work uses classic instruction tuning, supervised fine-tuning without reasoning traces, on the RLM to improve RLM performance in both verifiable and hard-to-verify domains, including coding and text summarization, while preserving RLM capabilities across other domains.

This framework yields a practical pre-deployment diagnostic: estimate the oracle gap, then measure coverage, signal fidelity, and harm before investing in collaboration.
This work proposes AutoVerifier, a residual-guided non-parametric optimization method that learns biases from recurring verifier errors and promotes them to code modules or prompt guidance only after replay validation detects no direct regressions, keeping accepted updates auditable, editable, and reusable.
This work proposes CritiqueDriveVLM, a novel unified three-stage framework internalizing reasoning directly into the VLM, and proposes Latent Thought Distillation to overcome the latency bottleneck.

This work unify 19 interface-quality principles from three complementary sources of HCI knowledge: WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards, deceptive design taxonomies, and established theories of perception, cognition, and interaction to investigate whether a lightweight vision-language model can serve as an effective critic...
