Bebop:通过带拒绝采样的多token预测加速RL训练
AI 导读
Bebop系统研究多token预测(MTP)在大语言模型RL后训练中的加速瓶颈。发现MTP接受率与模型熵波动呈负线性关系;概率拒绝采样相比贪婪草稿采样能缓解熵干扰。提出端到端TV损失直接优化多步拒绝采样接受率,带来约10%提升,最高达95%接受率,额外推理吞吐提升25%。在Qwen3.5、Qwen3.6和Qwen3.7上,异步RL训练实现1.8倍端到端加速。预RL阶段的MTP训练结合e2e TV损失和拒绝采样可保持全程一致的加速,无需在线更新。
推荐理由
做RLHF的团队值得细看,MTP加拒绝采样直接把RL训练推到了1.8倍加速,还省去了在线更新MTP的成本。TV损失的设计让接受率提了10%,这套组合拳相当实用。

Abstract:Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a key component in modern large language models, yet the rollout stage remains the key bottleneck in RL training pipelines. Although Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) offers a natural solution to accelerate rollouts through speculative decoding, many studies have observed that MTP acceptance rates degrade significantly during RL training, leading to limited speedup performance. To address this bottleneck, we present Bebop, a systematic study of MTP in LLM post-training, and offer practical recipes to integrate MTP into large-scale RL pipelines. First, we reveal that the MTP acceptance rate is fundamentally bounded by the fluctuation of model entropy, which demonstrates a clear negative linear relationship with the rise of entropy in the RL stage. Second, we show that probabilistic rejection sampling largely alleviates the disturbance introduced by entropy in RL compared to greedy draft sampling. We further identify that the conventional MTP training objectives (cross-entropy or KL) are suboptimal in such settings, and therefore we propose a novel end-to-end TV loss that directly optimizes multi-step rejection sampling acceptance rate, yielding ~10% acceptance rate improvements, achieving up to 95% acceptance rates and up to 25% extra inference throughput gains across mathematical reasoning, code generation, and agentic tasks. Third, we test various online MTP training strategies during RL and show that pre-RL MTP training with e2e TV loss and rejection sampling achieves a consistent acceptance rate and speedup throughout the entire RL, eliminating the need for costly online MTP updating. We provide extensive experiments and analysis that validate our findings. Experimental results show our method achieves up to 1.8x end-to-end acceleration in async RL training of Qwen3.5, Qwen3.6, and Qwen3.7 models.
