VSRL: A Unified Reinforcement Learning Framework for Autonomous Search in Vertical Domains

: Retrieval-augmented large language models (LLMs) are widely used for knowledge-intensive question answering (QA), yet their adaptation to specialized vertical domains presents a cost–reliability dilemma. Simulated search, exemplified by Self-Search Reinforcement Learning (SSRL), reduces retrieval cost but depends on...
