RL training of multi-turn LLM agents is inherently unstable, and reasoning quality directly determines task performance. Entropy is widely used to track reasoning stability. However, entropy only measures diversity within the same input,…

Recently, tensor data (or multidimensional array) have been generated in many modern applications, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in neuroscience and videos in video analysis. Many efforts are made in recent years to…
