RAPO: Expanding Exploration for LLM Agents via Retrieval-Augmented Policy Optimization
Agentic Reinforcement Learning (Agentic RL) has shown remarkable potential in large language model-based (LLM) agents. These works can empower LLM agents to tackle complex tasks via multi-step, tool-integrated reasoning. However, an inherent limitation of existing Agentic RL methods is their reliance on a pure on-policy paradigm for exploration, restricting exploration to the agent's self-generated outputs and preventing the discovery of new reasoning perspectives for further improvement. While recent efforts incorporate auxiliary off-policy signals to enhance exploration, they typically utilize full off-policy trajectories for trajectory-level policy estimation, overlooking the necessity...
