ARISE-RL: Agentic Rubric-Grounded Iterative Self-Evolution with Reinforcement Learning
Training open-ended agents via reinforcement learning (RL) is hindered by the lack of verifiable gold answers and scalable rubrics. Moreover, even near the model's capability boundary, long-horizon open-ended agentic tasks often yield brittle and unstable rewards, resulting in weak or noisy rollout contrast that obscures fine-grained optimization signals for group-based policy learning. To address these challenges, we propose ARISE-RL, a novel full-cycle self-evolution framework that couples a task/rubric Generator and a reasoning Solver through rubric-mediated co-evolution. The Generator grounds tool-related rubric criteria in real tool observations and is rewarded for producing valid, intermediate-difficulty tasks aligned with the Solver's evolving capability boundary. The Solver, in turn, learns from fine-grained rubric satisfaction signals through multi-step reasoning and tool use. We further introduce Reward-Gated Self-Evolution Distillation (RG-SED), which selectively distills a memory-augmented variant of the same policy back into itself only when the memory yields empirical reward improvement, thereby reducing distribution mismatch and avoiding blind imitation of noisy guidance. Finally, to support rigorous evaluation, we present ECR-Bench, an expert-calibrated rubric benchmark suite covering single-tool deep research and multi-tool travel planning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ARISE-RL consistently achieves robust and stable overall state-of-the-art performance across all evaluated benchmarks.
