DSGRPO
This repository contains the DSGRPO training setup built on top of maxrl/verl.
The git repository intentionally does not track model weights, parquet datasets,
logs, or checkpoints. Prepare those files under assets/ on each machine.
Repository Layout
DSGRPO/
maxrl/ # training code
train_qwen2.5_1.5b_math.sh # 1.5B DSGRPO Slurm job
train_qwen2.5_7b_math.sh # 7B DSGRPO Slurm job
launch.sh # batch launch helper
slurm_reference.sh # local Slurm reference
assets/ # local-only models and parquet data, not in git
The training scripts infer REPO_ROOT from their own location, so the clone path
does not need to be /home/guanninz/DSGRPO.
1. Clone
git clone git@github.com:guanning03/DSGRPO.git
cd DSGRPO
2. Create the Python Environment
The Slurm scripts activate a conda environment named more. Either create that
environment or edit the scripts to use a different env name.
conda create -n more python=3.10 -y
conda activate more
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
pip install torch==2.6.0 torchvision==0.21.0 torchaudio==2.6.0 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
pip install ninja packaging psutil
MAX_JOBS=4 pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation
pip install vllm==0.8.4 wandb math-verify huggingface_hub hf_transfer
pip install -r maxrl/requirements_sglang.txt
pip install -e maxrl
If flash-attn fails to build, run the install on a GPU node with the target CUDA
toolkit available, lower MAX_JOBS, or use a matching prebuilt wheel.
Optional sanity check:
python - <<'PY'
import torch, ray, vllm, verl
print("torch", torch.__version__)
print("cuda", torch.version.cuda)
print("ray", ray.__version__)
print("vllm", vllm.__version__)
print("verl import ok")

3. Prepare Assets
Required for the included jobs:
assets/Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B/config.json
assets/Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B/model.safetensors
assets/Qwen2.5-Math-7B/config.json
assets/Qwen2.5-Math-7B/model-00001-of-00004.safetensors
assets/dapo17k_math/train.parquet
Recommended validation files:
assets/math500/test.parquet
assets/aime24/test.parquet
assets/aime25/test.parquet
assets/olympiadbench/test.parquet
assets/amc23/test.parquet
The training scripts will use every validation file that exists and will skip missing ones. At least one validation parquet file must exist.
Fastest setup if a working machine already has the assets:
mkdir -p assets
rsync -av --info=progress2 OLD_SERVER:/home/guanninz/DSGRPO/assets/ ./assets/
Independent model download:
export HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1
huggingface-cli login
huggingface-cli download Qwen/Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B \
--local-dir assets/Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B \
--local-dir-use-symlinks False
huggingface-cli download Qwen/Qwen2.5-Math-7B \
--local-dir assets/Qwen2.5-Math-7B \
--local-dir-use-symlinks False
Independent dataset build:
PYTHONPATH=$PWD/maxrl python maxrl/examples/data_preprocess/dapo.py \
--local_dir assets/dapo17k_math
PYTHONPATH=$PWD/maxrl python maxrl/examples/maxrl_data_preprocess/math_500.py \
--local_dir assets/math500
PYTHONPATH=$PWD/maxrl python maxrl/examples/maxrl_data_preprocess/aime25.py \
--local_dir assets/aime25
PYTHONPATH=$PWD/maxrl python maxrl/examples/maxrl_data_preprocess/olympiadbench_amc23.py \
--local_dir assets
For exact reproduction of the current local assets, prefer rsync because it
also copies aime24, gsm8k, polaris, openr1, and other optional parquets.
Asset check:
test -f assets/Qwen2.5-Math-1.5B/config.json
test -f assets/Qwen2.5-Math-7B/config.json
test -f assets/dapo17k_math/train.parquet
find assets -maxdepth 2 -name 'test.parquet' -print
4. Configure Slurm
The two training scripts currently request:
partition: defq
account: ece-research
nodes: 1
gpus: 4
cpus: 64
mem: 500G
time: 48:00:00
On another cluster, edit the #SBATCH header in:
train_qwen2.5_1.5b_math.sh
train_qwen2.5_7b_math.sh
Adjust --partition, --account, --gres, --cpus-per-task, and --mem to
match that cluster. The Python arguments below the header are path-independent.
Use Slurm's dry run before submitting:
sbatch --test-only train_qwen2.5_1.5b_math.sh 101 0.05 0.05
sbatch --test-only train_qwen2.5_7b_math.sh 101 0.05 0.05
5. Submit Training
Arguments are:
sbatch SCRIPT DATA_SEED CORRECT_SAMPLE_LOG_PROB_COEF INCORRECT_SAMPLE_LOG_PROB_COEF
Run DSGRPO smoothing with both coefficients set to 0.05:
sbatch train_qwen2.5_1.5b_math.sh 101 0.05 0.05
sbatch train_qwen2.5_7b_math.sh 101 0.05 0.05
Run the full local sweep in launch.sh:
bash launch.sh
Monitor:
squeue -u $USER
tail -f logs/<jobid>_<jobname>.log
Outputs:
logs/
checkpoints/qwen2.5-1.5b-math-dsgrpo-dapo17k/
checkpoints/qwen2.5-7b-math-dsgrpo-dapo17k/
Codex Handoff Prompt
After cloning this repository on a new server, a concise prompt for another Codex:
Please follow README.md to set up this DSGRPO repo on this server. Create/verify
the conda env named "more", install dependencies, prepare assets under ./assets,
run the asset checks, run sbatch --test-only on both training scripts, and tell
me the exact sbatch commands to launch 1.5B and 7B DSGRPO with coefficients
0.05 and 0.05.
