arXiv:2607.03126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has substantially improved the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs), but sparse outcome rewards still make token-level credit assignment difficult. Existing scalable RL methods typically assign trajectory-level rewards uniformly across tokens, while recent entropy-aware approaches either rely on coarse detached heuristics or directly optimize true entropy, which can introduce non-local gradient components misaligned with sampled-token policy updates. We propose Adaptive Credit Policy Optimization (ACPO),
