R2IF: Aligning Reasoning with Decisions via Composite Rewards for Interpretable LLM Function Calling

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2604.20316v1 Announce Type: new Function calling empowers large language models (LLMs) to interface with external tools, yet existing RL-based approaches suffer from misalignment between reasoning processes and tool-call decisions. We propose R2IF, a reasoning-aware RL framework for interpretable function calling, adopting a composite reward integrating format/correctness constraints, Chain-of-Thought Effectiveness Reward (CER), and Specification-Modification-Value (SMV) reward, optimized via.
