#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Plot the reward triangular matrix from multi-rollout inference results. Reads the JSON output from run_inference.py and generates a heatmap where: - Each row = one prompt, rollout rewards sorted high-to-low within the row - Rows sorted by mean reward descending (easy on top, hard on bottom) - Color: reward value (0 = red, 1 = green) - Region labels and RV annotations on the right margin - Classification: Easy (mean >= threshold), Hard (mean <= threshold), Mixed (in between) The resulting upper-triangular shape shows: - Top rows: easy prompts (all green) — too easy, no RL signal - Middle rows: mixed prompts (left green, right red) — learnable - Bottom rows: hard prompts (all red) — too hard or broken Usage: python scripts/reward_diagnosis/plot_reward_matrix.py \ --input logs/inference_results.json \ --output logs/reward_matrix.png """ import argparse import json import sys from pathlib import Path import numpy as np try: import matplotlib matplotlib.use("Agg") import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import matplotlib.gridspec as gridspec from matplotlib.colors import LinearSegmentedColormap from matplotlib.patches import FancyBboxPatch except ImportError: print("matplotlib is required: pip install matplotlib") sys.exit(1) def main(): parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Plot reward triangular matrix") parser.add_argument("--input", required=True, help="Path to inference JSON from run_inference.py") parser.add_argument("--output", default=None, help="Output image path (default: _matrix.png)") parser.add_argument("--max_prompts", type=int, default=100, help="Max prompts to display") parser.add_argument("--easy_threshold", type=float, default=0.8, help="Mean reward >= this is classified as Easy") parser.add_argument("--hard_threshold", type=float, default=0.2, help="Mean reward <= this is classified as Hard") parser.add_argument("--dpi", type=int, default=200) args = parser.parse_args() # Load data with open(args.input) as f: data = json.load(f) config = data["config"] prompts = data["prompts"] summary = data["summary"] n_rollouts = config["rollouts_per_prompt"] # Build matrix: each row = sorted rewards (descending) for one prompt reward_rows = [] rv_values = [] for p in prompts: rewards = sorted(p["rewards"], reverse=True) reward_rows.append(rewards) rv_values.append(p["reward_variance"]) # Sort by mean reward descending (easy on top, hard on bottom → upper triangle) mean_rewards = [np.mean(row) for row in reward_rows] sort_idx = np.argsort(mean_rewards)[::-1] reward_rows = [reward_rows[i] for i in sort_idx] rv_values = [rv_values[i] for i in sort_idx] mean_rewards = [mean_rewards[i] for i in sort_idx] # Truncate for display n_display = min(len(reward_rows), args.max_prompts) reward_rows = reward_rows[:n_display] rv_values = rv_values[:n_display] matrix = np.array(reward_rows) # Classify by mean reward thresholds n_easy = sum(1 for m in mean_rewards if m >= args.easy_threshold) n_hard = sum(1 for m in mean_rewards if m <= args.hard_threshold) n_mixed = n_display -
