# Qwen3-4B-RLOO-math-reasoning

This model is a fine-tuned version of [Qwen3-4B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-4B) using **RLOO (REINFORCE Leave-One-Out) without KL penalty** for mathematical reasoning.

Trained with [PipelineRL](https://github.com/ServiceNow/PipelineRL).

## Training Details

### Datasets

| Split | Datasets |
|-------|----------|
| Train | `gsm8k_train`, `math_train` |
| Test  | `gsm8k_test`, `math_500` |

### RL Algorithm

| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Algorithm | RLOO (REINFORCE Leave-One-Out) |
| Advantage Baseline | Leave-one-out mean reward over the group |
| Extra Inference | None |
| Group Structure | Required |
| Policy Loss | `reinforce` |
| KL Coefficient | `0.0` |
| Epsilon (clip) | `0.02` |
| Discount Factor (`gamma`) | `1.0` |
| Divide Advantage by Std | `False` |
| Filter Zero Advantage Groups | `False` |
| Rollouts per Problem | `16` |

RLOO uses the leave-one-out mean of the other responses in the group as the baseline, trained with a REINFORCE-style policy loss.

| **Overall** | **87.09** | **91.17** | **93.73** | **95.33** | **96.39** | **97.25** |

*GSM8K test: 1319 problems · MATH-500: 500 problems · Overall: 1819 problems (overall weighted by problem count).*

## Usage

### Transformers

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("jaygala24/Qwen3-4B-RLOO-math-reasoning", revision="step-0200")  # optional branch, e.g. "step-0400"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("jaygala24/Qwen3-4B-RLOO-math-reasoning", revision="step-0200")

prompt = "Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \\boxed{}.\n\nWhat is the sum of 123 and 456?"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=4096, temperature=0.7)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```

### vLLM

```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

llm = LLM(model="jaygala24/Qwen3-4B-RLOO-math-reasoning", revision="step-0200")  # optional branch, e.g. "step-0400"
sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.7, max_tokens=4096)

prompt = "Please reason step by step, and put your final answer within \boxed{}.

What is the sum of 123 and 456?"
outputs = llm.generate([prompt], sampling_params)
print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
```
