Researchers have introduced the Generalization Spectrum, a novel evaluation framework designed to assess how far learning from specific examples can transfer to new, unseen data. This approach moves beyond traditional methods that rely on single aggregate scores from i.i.d. test sets. The framework tracks performance across various test variants, from exact recall to cross-language implementation and context transfer under re-framing, revealing the breadth of an algorithm's generalization capabilities. Initial experiments on competitive programming problems indicate that reinforcement learning (RL) is more efficient at converting memorization into near-transfer than supervised fine-tuning (SFT) variants, while in-context learning (ICL) shows strong but correspondence-dependent transfer.
