SAERL: Using Sparse Autoencoders to Guide LLM Reinforcement Learning Data Engineering
SAERL is a post-training data engineering framework that uses Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) — a mechanistic interpretability tool — to extract intrinsic model signals for controlling data diversity, difficulty, and quality during RL fine-tuning. The framework applies SAE-space clustering for batch diversity, a difficulty proxy for curriculum ordering, and a quality probe for data filtering. On Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B with GRPO, SAERL achieves 3% average accuracy improvement and reaches target accuracy with 20% fewer training steps. SAE representations transfer across model families and scales, suggesting broad applicability as a lightweight data engineering tool.
