GRIP: Granular Reward-Guided Parameter Interpolation for Efficient Reasoning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 26, 2026 · UTC

Reasoning-oriented large language models often achieve strong problem-solving performance by generating long chains of thought, but this behavior substantially increases inference cost and latency. In contrast, instruction-tuned models tend to answer more concisely, yet often lack comparable reasoning ability. This accuracy-efficiency mismatch motivates a lightweight approach that combines the strengths of both models without full model retraining. In this paper, we propose GRIP (Granular Reward-guided Interpolation of Parameters), a reward-guided parameter interpolation framework for efficien
