Test-time reinforcement learning (TTRL) always adapts models at inference time via pseudo-labeling, leaving it vulnerable to spurious optimization signals from label noise.Through an empirical study, we observe that responses with medium consistency form an ambiguity region and constitute the primary source of reward noise.Crucially, we find that such spurious signals can be even amplified through group-relative advantage estimation.Motivated by these findings, we propose a unified framework, Debiased and Denoised test-time Reinforcement Learning (DDRL), to mitigate spurious signals.Concretely, DDRL first applies a frequency-based sampling strategy to exclude ambiguous samples while maintaining a balanced set of positive and negative examples.It then adopts a debiased advantage estimation with fixed advantages, removing the bias introduced by group-relative policy optimization.Finally, DDRL incorporates a consensus-based off-policy refinement stage, which leverages the rejection-sampled dataset to enable efficient and stable model updates.Experiments on three large language models across multiple mathematical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that DDRL consistently outperforms existing TTRL baselines.The code is available at https://github.com/yuyongcan/DDRL.

Test-Time Reinforcement Learning (TTRL) enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance reasoning capabilities on unlabeled test streams by deriving pseudo-rewards from majority voting consensus.However, existing TTRL methods rely exclusively on positive pseudo-labeling strategies.Such reliance becomes vulnerable under challenging scenarios where answer distributions are highly dispersed, resulting in weak consensus that inadvertently reinforces incorrect trajectories as supervision signals.In this paper, we propose SCRL (Selective-Complementary Reinforcement Learning), a robust test-time reinforcement learning framework that effectively mitigates label noise amplification.SCRL develops Selective Positive Pseudo-Labeling, which enforces strict consensus criteria to filter unreliable majorities. Complementarily, SCRL introduces Entropy-Gated Negative Pseudo-Labeling, the first negative supervision mechanism in TTRL, to reliably prune incorrect trajectories based on generation uncertainty. Extensive experiments on mathematical reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that SCRL achieves substantial improvements over baselines, while maintaining robust generalization and training stability under constrained rollout budgets.

Pre-training on large, high-quality datasets is essential for improving the reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), particularly in specialized fields like mathematics. However, the field of Multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) lacks a comprehensive, open-source dataset for mathematical reasoning. To fill this gap, we present InfiMM-WebMath-40B, a high-quality dataset of interleaved image-text documents. It consists of 24 million web pages, 85 million image URLs, and 40 billion text tokens, all carefully extracted and filtered from CommonCrawl. We outline our data collection and processing pipeline in detail. Models trained on InfiMM-WebMath-40B demonstrate strong performance in both text-only and multimodal settings, setting a new state-of-the-art on multimodal math benchmarks such as MathVerse and We-Math.

Recently, scaling test-time compute on Large Language Models (LLM) has garnered wide attention. However, there has been limited investigation of how various reasoning prompting strategies perform as scaling. In this paper, we focus on a standard and realistic scaling setting: majority voting. We systematically conduct experiments on 6 LLMs × 8 prompting strategies × 6 benchmarks. Experiment results consistently show that as the sampling time and computational overhead increase, complicated prompting strategies with superior initial performance gradually fall behind simple Chain-of-Thought.We analyze this phenomenon and provide theoretical proofs. Additionally, we propose a probabilistic method to efficiently predict scaling performance and identify the best prompting strategy under large sampling times, eliminating the need for resource-intensive inference processes in practical applications.Furthermore, we introduce two ways derived from our theoretical analysis to significantly improve the scaling performance. We hope that our research can promote to re-examine the role of complicated prompting, unleash the potential of simple prompting strategies, and provide new insights for enhancing test-time scaling performance.

We present a novel human annotated dataset for evaluating the ability for visual-language models to generate both short and long descriptions for real-world video clips, termed DeVAn (Dense Video Annotation). The dataset contains 8.5K YouTube video clips of 20-60 seconds in duration and covers a wide range of topics and interests. Each video clip is independently annotated by 5 human annotators, producing both captions (1 sentence) and summaries (3-10 sentences). Given any video selected from the dataset and its corresponding ASR information, we evaluate visual-language models on either caption or summary generation that is grounded in both the visual and auditory content of the video. Additionally, models are also evaluated on caption- and summary-based retrieval tasks, where the summary-based retrieval task requires the identification of a target video given excerpts of a given summary. Given the novel nature of the paragraph-length video summarization task, we compared different existing evaluation metrics and their alignment with human preferences and found that model-based evaluation metrics provide more semantically-oriented and human-aligned evaluation. Finally, we benchmarked a wide range of current video-language models on DeVAn, and we aim for DeVAn to serve as a useful evaluation set in the age of large language models and complex multi-modal tasks.

In this work, we present InfiMM, an advanced Multimodal Large Language Model that adapts to intricate vision-language tasks. InfiMM, inspired by the Flamingo architecture, distinguishes itself through the utilization of large-scale training data, comprehensive training strategies, and diverse large language models. This approach ensures the preservation of Flamingo’s foundational strengths while simultaneously introducing augmented capabilities. Empirical evaluations across a variety of benchmarks underscore InfiMM’s remarkable capability in multimodal understanding.
