🌟 ARES — Adaptive Multimodal Reasoning Framework
Two-stage adaptive reasoning: cold-start + entropy-shaped RL.

🔑 Highlights
Balanced reasoning across easy & hard tasks via token-level entropy shaping.
SOTA efficiency–accuracy tradeoffs on diverse multimodal and textual benchmarks.

📚 Training Pipeline

1. Adaptive Cold-Start — curate difficulty-aware reasoning traces
2. Entropy-Shaped RL (AEPO) — trigger exploration via high-window entropy, hierarchical rewards
