Hi, I’m Jialong Liu (柳佳龙), a M.S. student at Wuhan University (jointly trained with the SJTU BCMI Lab), advised by Prof. Zuchao Li. My research focuses on LLM post-training, with a particular interest in reinforcement learning for long-horizon agent tasks. I’m currently an Agent post-training intern at Xiaohongshu (RedNote).

Research Interests
I work on post-training algorithms for large language models, with a main thread on optimizing LLMs in multi-turn / interactive settings within long-horizon agent tasks. Keywords:
Reinforcement Learning · Memory · Multi-turn Conversation · Long-Horizon Task · Continual Learning
I currently have 4 first-author papers accepted / under review, and actively contribute to open-source communities (vLLM-Omni, SGLang Diffusion, SGLang RL).
Selected Research
-
SRPO: Self-Reflective Policy Optimization for Long-Horizon Reasoning — ICML 2026 (Accepted) A self-reflective policy optimization framework that lets the model analyze its own reasoning trajectories and synthesize errors into a “Reflection Patch,” paired with a Reset-with-Memory mechanism that turns sparse terminal signals into dense token-level learning signals. Built on Qwen3-8B, it reaches SOTA with only 8% of the training FLOPs (AIME’24 73.3%) and leads clearly on agent benchmarks such as WebShop, ALFWorld, and SWE-Bench-Lite.
-
TTPO: Turn-Level Trajectory Optimization for Multi-Turn LLM Reasoning — EMNLP 2026 (Under Review) A critic-free RL method that reparameterizes GRPO at the dialogue-turn granularity. Across six multi-turn tasks it reduces run-to-run volatility by ~19–22 points and improves average performance by 9–12 percentage points.
-
HELM: Hierarchical Epistemic Learned Memory for Long-Horizon Agents — EMNLP 2026 (Under Review) A hierarchical epistemic learned-memory framework that exposes memory as an event-driven interface, building a three-tier nested memory store coupled with epistemic governance and a learned controller. It significantly improves success rates on GAIA and WebArena and supports auditable recall-provenance diagnostics.
-
CHOP: Segment-Level On-Policy Distillation for Long-Horizon Agents — NeurIPS 2026 (Under Review) A hybrid distillation method for long-horizon agents that dynamically assesses the reliability of token-level supervision and switches to segment-level Wasserstein distribution matching when reliability is low, fundamentally mitigating the degradation of conventional on-policy distillation.
