What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Scientific, engineering, and mathematical reasoning tasks can admit multiple valid solutions, while exhaustive annotation of the full solution set is often prohibitively costly. Test-time reinforcement learning (TTRL) applies reinforcement learning to unlabeled test instances, offering a label-free approach to multiple-solution reasoning. In this setting, generation frequency serves two opposing objectives: correctness estimation favors frequent outcomes, whereas outcome-level diversity preservation favors less frequent outcomes. We term this tension the \textbf{Frequency Conflict}. To resolve this conflict, we propose MS-TTRL, which obtains frequency-independent correctness estimates through Outcome-Level Self-Verification while reserving generation frequency solely for diversity preservation. Three-State Outcome Cache and the Candidate State support verification reuse across repeated observations and confidence-aware handling of ambiguous outcomes, while Confidence-Gated Inverse Probability Scaling selectively strengthens the learning signals of rare, reliably verified outcomes. Experiments across two benchmarks, four multiple-solution tasks, and three backbone models, each evaluated with five random seeds, show that MS-TTRL improves Recovery Rate by 19.13 percentage points on average over the best-performing label-free baseline and approaches the performance of the supervised IPS-GRPO.
