Preprint.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Preference optimization ranks final answers and trajectory RL maximizes aggregate returns, yet neither credits the local change that turns a flawed reasoning state into a better one. We introduce Lifted State Policy Optimization (LSPO), which establishes this finite, cost-adjusted transition as the primary unit of learning. Each textual answer is augmented with a learned continuous coordinate, forming a lifted state that an energy function evaluates and orders. A shaped reward drives energy descent net of edit and step costs, and an internalization loss absorbs selected low-energy answers into the direct generator. On Qwen3.5-27B, the resulting single-pass policy reaches 71.8% aggregate accuracy across mathematics, science, code, and logic benchmarks, matching test-time reflection at 71.9% with 28% lower latency and 25.8% fewer tokens. The pattern holds across dense and mixture-of-experts backbones, and matched controls confirm that transition credit and the lifted coordinate each contribute, as does answer internalization.
