Researchers have introduced Reinforcement Patching (ReinPatch), a novel framework designed to optimize sequence patching policies and their corresponding sequence backbone models through reinforcement learning. This method formulates patch boundary placement as a discrete decision process, utilizing Group Relative Policy Gradient (GRPG) to avoid continuous relaxations and enable natural dynamic patching policy optimization. ReinPatch allows for strict adherence to a specified compression rate, facilitating efficient backbone scaling, and supports multi-level hierarchical modeling. Evaluations on time-series forecasting datasets show ReinPatch outperforming state-of-the-art data-driven patching strategies, with the potential to extract the patching module as a standalone foundation patcher for community analysis of neural patching behaviors.
