Contextual Information Policy Optimization for Search Agents
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.06128v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Search agents extend large language models beyond static parametric memory by enabling them to acquire and use ex ternal evidence during multi-step reasoning. For knowledge intensive tasks involving complex or evolving information, their reliability depends not only on retrieving relevant ev idence but also on using it to guide subsequent reasoning. However, existing methods primarily reward final-answer cor rectness or intermediate progress, without directly assessing whether post-retrieval actions are grounded in the retrieved evidence.
