DPO (v2 §28) needs a preference dataset — +static pairs of `(chosen, rejected)` completions, whether from a public dataset +or hand-labelled. Neither covers "generate fresh preference signal automatically, +for qualities that are neither checkable nor already labelled" — open-ended chat +quality being the clearest example. RLAIF fills exactly that gap. + +RLAIF is deliberately architected as a **data-generation front end**, not a new +training objective — `dpo_loss` (v2 §28) does not change at all.

The +`InferenceEngine` implementation lives in the CLI binary, alongside +`MathVerifierAdapter`. + +### The `CandidateSampler` trait + +```rust +// aarambh-studio-finetune/src/rlaif.rs +pub trait CandidateSampler { + fn sample_candidates(&mut self, prompt: &str, n: usize, config: &RlaifConfig) + -> Result>; +} +``` + +Abstracts N-completion sampling (v1 §12 pattern) so RLAIF is testable with a +deterministic fake sampler without a real `InferenceEngine`. The +`InferenceEngine` implementation (in the CLI binary) samples N candidates with +seeds `base + i`, exactly as the self-learning loop's `online_grpo.rs` does for +GRPO grouping. + +### The judge prompt template + +The default template (`default_judge_template`) asks the judge to compare two +candidates for the same prompt and reply with ONLY valid JSON: + +```json +{"preferred": "A" | "B" | "tie", "margin": , "reason": ""} +``` + +`parse_judge_verdict` robustly parses this: malformed JSON, unknown `preferred` +values, or non-finite margins all fall back to a neutral `Tie` with margin +`0.0` — the pair is then discarded downstream rather than trusted at face value, +matching the roadmap's "down-weighted or discarded rather than trusted naively" +discipline. + +### Position-swap bias correction + +`judge_pair_both_orderings` judges a pair in both `(prompt, a, b)` and +`(prompt, b, a)` orderings, then `resolve_preference` translates each verdict +back into the original frame (in the BA ordering, "A" means `b` wins) and +classifies the result: + +- **Agreement** — both orderings pick the same original-frame winner. Weight + `1.0`, unless both margins are below `agreement_margin` (low-confidence + agreement), in which case the weight is the margin itself. +- **Tie** — either ordering returned `Tie`. Weight `0.0`, discarded. +- **Disagreement** — orderings disagree. Discarded if `bias_discard`; otherwise + down-weighted to `DISAGREEMENT_WEIGHT` (0.25) and the more-confident ordering's + verdict is chosen (equal margins → discarded as genuinely ambiguous). + +## CPU/CUDA honesty policy + +Everything in `rlaif.rs` is pure Rust over the existing +`InferenceEngine`/`Sampler`/`DpoDataset` surface — zero `unsafe` blocks, zero +CUDA calls. It compiles and is unit-tested on CPU without the `cuda` feature. +The CUDA path is unchanged: when the policy or judge engine is on a CUDA +device, the existing `generate` calls run on GPU automatically; RLAIF adds no +new device-specific code. + +## Backward compatibility + +RLAIF is purely additive: `dpo_loss` (v2 §28) is byte-for-byte unchanged, the +`DpoDataset`/`DpoTrainer`/`DpoDataLoader` types are unchanged (only the +`DpoTrainer.train_loader` field was widened from private to `pub(crate)` so the +RLAIF integration test in `rlaif.rs` can pull one batch and prove the pairs feed +through the unmodified `train_step`). Existing `finetune dpo`/`qdpo`/`grpo`/`sft` +commands are untouched — `finetune rlaif` is a new subcommand, opt-in only. + +## An honest scope constraint + +RLAIF is text-only in Phase 46: the judge prompt template and candidate +sampling operate on text completions. Multimodal RLAIF (judging image/video/ +document-grounded completions) is future work, not a half-implementation. The +judge is a frozen checkpoint — either the same model at an earlier stage, or +the Large scale judging Small/Tiny outputs, per the roadmap — never a trained +reward model (no reward-model checkpoint ships, consistent with the release +audit forbidding tracked model artifacts). + +## Measured, not assumed + +Whether an RLAIF-tuned checkpoint's win rate actually improves is an +eval-harness question, answered via v2 §28's existing `preference` eval task +(`eval --task preference`), not assumed from the technique's general reputation. +The fourth acceptance test +(`rlaif_dpo_run_reports_non_negative_win_rate_delta_on_preference_eval_task`) +enforces that the win-rate is *measured* and the delta is *non-negative* — the +honest floor, not a claimed win. A negative delta would be a real regression; +non-negative means RLAIF helped or was neutral. This is the same "measure, don't +assume" discipline every alignment phase since v2 §17 has held. + +## An honest hardware constraint + +RLAIF judge passes are Kaggle-class inference workloads (judge-model inference +at self-sampling scale), per `SELF_LEARNING_V4.md` §50's hardware-gating table. +The smoke script keeps N=2 on a tiny CPU checkpoint so it runs in well under a +minute; real RLAIF runs at scale are Kaggle-scoped for cost reasons, following +v1 §12's existing i3 self-learning N-completion budget precedent. + +## Tests + +| Test | Gate | +|---|---| +| `position_swap_disagreement_is_downweighted_not_silently_trusted` | disagreement weight < 1.0 (down-weighted, not trusted); `bias_discard` discards | +| `rlaif_generated_pairs_match_existing_dpo_pair_schema_exactly` | output is `{prompt, chosen, rejected}` and round-trips through `DpoExample` + JSONL | +| `rlaif_preference_pairs_fed_into_unmodified_dpo_pipeline_train_successfully` | generated pairs → `DpoDataset::from_examples` → real `DpoTrainer::train_step` (finite loss) | +| `rlaif_dpo_run_reports_non_negative_win_rate_delta_on_preference_eval_task` | measured win-rate ≥ 0.5 baseline (non-negative delta), not asserted improvement | +| `parse_judge_verdict_parses_valid_json` / `_handles_malformed_json_as_tie` / `_clamps_margin` / `_treats_unknown_preferred_as_tie` | robust judge-verdict parsing | +| `form_pairs_generates_all_combinations` | C(N,2) index pairs, handles n<2 | +| `build_judge_prompt_substitutes_all_placeholders` | prompt-template substitution | +| `agreement_low_margin_is_downweighted` | low-margin agreement down-weighted by margin | +| `disagreement_with_equal_margins_is_discarded` | equal-margin disagreement discarded as ambiguous | +| `tie_pairs_are_discarded` | tie verdicts produce weight 0.0 | +| `rlaif_config_rejects_fewer_than_two_candidates` | config validation | +| `read_prompts_jsonl_round_trips` / `_rejects_empty_file` | prompts JSONL I/O | + +The four roadmap-named tests are the Phase 46 acceptance tests; the rest are +the supporting CPU unit tests that exercise the new code paths without CUDA +hardware or a real model checkpoint. + +## Configs + +- `configs/rlaif_smoke.toml` — CPU smoke training config (tiny Shakespeare, + 8 steps) that produces a checkpoint the smoke script runs RLAIF against + (policy == judge, self-judging).
