arXiv:2610.00389v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-ended query generation lacks standard answers, thus necessitating an effective reward mechanism. Pointwise scoring rubrics provide limited information about the relative quality of sample answers under the same prompt; merging multiple rubric judgments into a single score may also mask the differences between these answers. We propose MatrixReward, which constructs rewards from a rollout-by-rubric win-rate matrix obtained by comparing every pair of sampled responses under each rubric. The spread of each matrix column captures how strongly
