GPRA on DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B

This repository contains LoRA adapter checkpoints trained with PRIME (Process Reinforcement through Implicit Rewards) integrated into the GRPO framework on the Open-RS2 dataset.

Method Overview

We integrate PRIME's implicit process reward model (PRM) into Tina's GRPO + LoRA training pipeline. The key idea is to provide token-level dense rewards in addition to the sparse outcome reward (correct/incorrect), enabling better credit assignment during RL training.

Architecture

GPU 0: Policy (LoRA training) + Implicit PRM (full-parameter, CPU time-sharing) + Reference (frozen)
GPU 1: vLLM rollout engine

PRIME Advantage Formula (Eq. 7)

The combined advantage at token position t is:

A_t = A_outcome + A_process_t

A_outcome = (r_o(y) - mean(r_o)) / std(r_o)          # Standard GRPO
A_process_t = sum_{s=t}^{T} normalized_r_phi(y_s)     # Token-level cumulative sum

Where the implicit process reward is:

r_phi(y_t) = beta * log(pi_phi(y_t|y<t) / pi_ref(y_t|y<t))

The PRM is updated online with binary cross-entropy loss using outcome labels (0/1 accuracy).

Usage

Install Dependencies

pip install torch==2.5.1 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
pip install vllm==0.7.2 transformers==4.48.2 peft==0.14.0
pip install math-verify latex2sympy2-extended

Load and Merge LoRA Adapter

import torch
from peft import PeftModel
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "whalexdfsa/open-rs2-PRIME/checkpoint-500")
model = model.merge_and_unload()

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B")

Inference with vLLM (Recommended)

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

# After merging and saving to a local directory
llm = LLM(model="path/to/merged_model", dtype="bfloat16", max_model_len=32768)
sampling = SamplingParams(max_tokens=32768, temperature=0.6, top_p=0.95)

prompt = "Solve: What is the sum of all positive integers n such that n^2 - 19n + 99 is a perfect square?"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
formatted = llm.get_tokenizer().apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
output = llm.generate([formatted], sampling)
print(output[0].outputs[0].text)
