Add model card for Qwen3-14B-S2L-PO-4Bexplorer

Browse files

This PR adds a comprehensive model card for **Qwen3-14B-S2L-PO-4Bexplorer**, linking it to the paper [Smaller Models are Natural Explorers for Policy-Level Diversity in GRPO](https://huggingface.co/papers/2605.30789) and its official GitHub repository.

It configures appropriate metadata tags, including the `license`, `library_name`, and `pipeline_tag`.

+ # Qwen3-14B-S2L-PO-4Bexplorer
13
+
14
+ This repository contains the Qwen3-14B learner model trained using the **S2L-PO (Small-to-Large Policy Optimization)** framework with a **Qwen3-4B** explorer.
15
+
16
+ S2L-PO is presented in the paper [Smaller Models are Natural Explorers for Policy-Level Diversity in GRPO](https://huggingface.co/papers/2605.30789).

+ ## Introduction
23
+
24
+ S2L-PO enhances rollout diversity in Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) for LLMs by using a smaller model within the same family as a natural explorer to generate a portion of the rollout groups. This introduces policy-level diversity, providing structured exploration signals for gradient estimation, resulting in faster convergence and higher final performance on reasoning tasks.
25
+
26
+ For this specific checkpoint, a fixed **Qwen3-4B-Base** explorer is used to guide the training of the **Qwen3-14B-Base** learner.

+

+ ## Environment & Usage

+ Please refer to the [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/qishisuren123/S2L-PO) for installation instructions, environment setup, and evaluation scripts on mathematical reasoning benchmarks.
