摘要
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR) has proven effective for training reasoning-oriented large language models, but existing methods largely assume high-resource settings with abundant training data. In low-resource scenarios, RLVR is prone to more severe entropy collapse, which substantially limits exploration and degrades reasoning performance. To address this issue, we propose Hybrid-domain Entropy dynamics ALignment (HEAL), a framework tailored for few-shot RLVR. HEAL first selectively incorporates high-value general-domain data to promote more diverse exploration. Then, we introduce Entropy Dynamics Alignment (EDA), a reward mechanism that aligns trajectory-level entropy dynamics between the target and general domains, capturing both entropy magnitude and fine-grained variation. Through this alignment, EDA not only further mitigates entropy collapse but also encourages the policy to acquire more diverse exploration behaviors from the general domain. Experiments across multiple domains show that HEAL consistently improves few-shot RLVR performance. Notably, using only 32 target-domain samples, HEAL matches or even surpasses full-shot RLVR trained with 1K target-domain samples.
