The proposed framework combines Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and controllable Reinforcement Learning (RL) to fine-tune large language models (LLMs) for generating research ideas. By leveraging a two-stage approach, the model learns foundational patterns from pairs of research papers and follow-up ideas in the SFT stage, and then optimizes generated ideas across key metrics using multi-dimensional reward modeling guided by fine-grained feedback in the RL stage. This framework enables dynamic adjustment of generation while ensuring context-aware emphasis during inference through dimensional controllers and a sentence-level decoder.

This paper proposes a new way to use large language models to help scientists come up with research ideas. The current approach uses pre-trained models that are prompted to generate ideas, but this can be limited in its ability to create effective ideas. To overcome these limitations, the researchers developed a two-stage system that combines machine learning and reward-based optimization to fine-tune the model for better idea generation. This framework helps balance the trade-offs between creating new, innovative ideas, making them feasible to implement, and ensuring they are actually effective.
