Researchers have developed a new framework called Beacon to improve the safety alignment of large reasoning models (LRMs). The framework addresses two failure modes in existing methods like GRPO: advantage collapse and unsafe diversification. Beacon utilizes Safety Signal Recovery (SSR) to enhance safety learning signals and Safety-Utility Decoupled Alignment (SUDA) to balance safety with utility, reducing over-refusal. Experiments on Qwen3 and DeepSeek-R1-Distill variants demonstrated significant improvements in safety and reasoning performance. AI
