arXiv:2609.18587v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Test-time reinforcement learning (TTRL) enables models to improve their reasoning without relying on labeled training data, but existing approaches typically optimize a large fraction of the model parameters. This raises a natural question: can effective test-time adaptation emerge when both the reward signal and the optimization space are severely restricted? We answer this question with label-free bias-only TTRL, which uses majority-vote pseudolabels as rewards and optimizes only ~100K bias parameters while keeping the pretrained back
