Title: LEAP: Lean Environment-Feedback via Adaptive Pruning for Code RL in GPU Kernel Generation

Abstract:
arXiv:2608.01804v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training large language models (LLMs) via reinforcement learning (RL) has significantly advanced code generation capabilities. To bypass the heavy memory footprint of critic networks, current state-of-the-art frameworks leverage critic-free paradigms like Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) tied to rule-based verification sandboxes. However, applying these frameworks to low-level systems programming, such as CUDA kernel generation-pres
