What changed
Compared step-level, outcome-based and learned-reward feedback for GSM8K reasoning, separating final-answer accuracy from correctness of the reasoning trace.
Scientific scope
Compared step-level, outcome-based and learned-reward feedback for GSM8K reasoning, separating final-answer accuracy from correctness of the reasoning trace. Outcome supervision reached similar final-answer errors with fewer labels in this setup; process-based feedback improved reasoning correctness. Neither this result nor the later MATH study establishes a universal winner across tasks.
Evidence
The linked original sources describe the stated contribution and its evidence limits. WRS has not independently rerun the experiments or certified a proof. Outcome supervision reached similar final-answer errors with fewer labels in this setup; process-based feedback improved reasoning correctness.
