Chip placement is a critical step in physical design. While reinforcement learning (RL)-based methods have recently emerged, their training primarily focuses on wirelength optimization, and therefore often fail to achieve expert-quality layouts. We identify the reward design as the primary cause for the performance gap with experts, and instead of formalizing intricate processes, we circumvent this by directly learning from expert layouts to derive a reward model. Our approach starts from the final expert layouts to infer step-by-step expert trajectories. Using these trajectories as demonstrations or preferences, we train a model that captures the latent implicit rewards in expert results. Experiments show that our framework can efficiently learn from even a single design and generalize well to unseen cases.
