Dynamic Rollout Editing (DRE) addresses overthinking in RL-trained reasoning models by modifying successful trajectories post-answer emergence. DRE preserves the correct reasoning prefix while editing unnecessary continuation, weakening the credit assigned to redundant thinking without penalizing valid reasoning. Experiments across diverse tasks demonstrate its effectiveness in reducing overthinking.
