RL Reward Construction with OpenJudge

Build reward signals for reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and reinforcement learning from AI feedback (RLAIF) using the openjudge library.

When to Use This Skill

• Building scalar rewards for GRPO / REINFORCE rollout scoring
• Generating (chosen, rejected) preference pairs for DPO / IPO
• Best-of-N candidate selection
• Multi-dimensional reward shaping (correctness + safety + format)
• Replacing or bootstrapping a reward model with LLM-as-judge
