  • Publication number: 20250299055
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to using reinforcement learning to train one or more machine learning models based on reward data that is model generated. The reward data is generated by a generative model, such as a large language model, in response to a prompt to provide respective reward scores for model-generated responses to a task. Since generating preference labels and training of a reward model can be bypassed here, the machine learning models can be trained using reinforcement learning with less processing cost and memory usage.
