arXiv:2607. 02234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) has emerged as a promising paradigm for improving LLM reasoning, where a privileged teacher with access to reference solutions provides token-level supervision on the student's own generated trajectories.

The paper proposes a fragment‑based reasoning framework for large language model–based machine translation. It extracts parallel source‑target fragments from retrieved similar examples and uses these fragments as intermediate reasoning traces to generate the final translation. Experiments with the Qwen3 model across six languages and multiple domains show that this approach outperforms standard k‑shot or basic drafting methods.

On-policy training has emerged as a powerful post-training paradigm for improving the reasoning capabilities of large language models, and is often enhanced by golden trajectories from stronger expert models. However, when the expert fails on harder problems, existing trajectory-guided methods lose their main source of supervision, and these failed trajectories are typically discarded as negative samples.
