arXiv:2606. 30406v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern large language models (LLMs) rely on reinforcement learning during post-training to push specific capabilities, yet integrating multiple capabilities into one model remains hard.
arXiv:2607. 26246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD), which aligns a student with the teacher's token-level distribution on the student's own rollouts, is an effective paradigm for transferring capabilities across LLMs.
Open-MOPD addresses the capability imbalance problem in multi-teacher on-policy distillation (M-OPD) by isolating capability integration from routing ambiguity and revealing a 35.6% headroom gap compared to a domain-routed oracle ensemble. The study identifies three key factors—sequence-length disparities, convergence drift, and reward staleness—that misallocate token-level optimization budgets, leading to severe degradation in concise tasks. The proposed Open-MOPD framework introduces token-share balancing, gap-aware dynamic budget allocation, and student reward refresh, boosting headroom recovery to 83.4% and providing an open-source, reproducible post‑training recipe and evaluation suite.

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is a powerful recipe for improving language-model reasoning, but it is expensive to repeat on every new strong model because the target model must generate many rollouts during training. As models scale, post-training itself becomes a bottleneck.
Multi-turn long-horizon planning is critical for foundation model agents, yet how to fundamentally improve it remains unclear. Existing models are trained on uncontrollable and opaque Internet data, making it difficult to identify how planning ability is acquired, shaped, and integrated.
On-policy distillation (OPD) transfers teacher capabilities by supervising trajectories sampled from the student's own policy, yet its generalization behavior remains poorly understood, as most studies evaluate OPD on a single domain and on benchmarks close to the training data. We present a controlled study that varies one generalization factor at a time, from in-domain distribution shifts to cross-domain transfer and the multi-teacher setting.
