# ARENA: Adaptive-Rewarded Evidence Navigation Agent

This is the official model release from our paper:

**[Effective and Transparent RAG: Adaptive-Reward Reinforcement Learning for Decision Traceability](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2505.13258)**

This model is part of the ARENA framework, which improves the reasoning ability and interpretability of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) by reinforcement learning with adaptive rewards. 

For instructions on how to use the model and more implementation details, please refer to our GitHub repository:
