HARGO: Heterogeneity-Aware Reward-Guided Optimization for RL Post-Training of LLMs on HPC Tasks

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.28301v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) can equip large language models (LLMs) with domain knowledge for high-performance computing (HPC) tasks such as data race detection and benchmark question answering. However, knowledge alone does not guarantee task-appropriate behavior: the same SFT model that correctly classifies 88.65\% of C/C++ data race samples produces verbose, imprecise answers to factual queries, with 65.9\% of MLPerf responses exceeding 40 characters. Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training addresses this gap by optimizing for task-specific rewards rather than token-level imitation. Yet HPC tasks exhibit extreme heterogeneity, with binary classification, factual QA, and semantic generation differing by 58x in answer length, spanning thre
