Difference Feedback: Generating Multimodal Process-Level Supervision for VLM Reinforcement Learning

Vision--language models (VLMs) are increasingly aligned via Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO)-style training. However, relying solely on terminal outcome rewards yields sparse credit assignment in multi-step reasoning, weakening the linkage between visual evidence and intermediate steps and often causing unstable optimization and visual hallucinations. We propose Differential Feedback, which automatically constructs token/step-level supervision masks by repairing erroneous reasoning trajectories, explicitly marking the key positions that require correction. Without costly large-scale step-by-step human annotations, our method enables process-level visual alignment and can be seamlessly integrated into existing GRPO-like frameworks. Experiments on multimodal reasoning benchmarks including MMMStar and MathVista show an average 3% improvement under matched compute budgets. Our approach offers an effective, low-cost solution for accurate vision--reasoning process alignment.
