Online Self-Weighted Fine‑Tuning (OSW‑FT) augments standard supervised fine‑tuning by adding online, trajectory‑level weighting: for each query the model estimates its current success rate from a small number of inference‑only rollouts and rescales the SFT loss accordingly. The method keeps the optimization direction anchored to the expert trajectory while adapting the update magnitude online, and it is shown to be unbiased for any finite rollout count with a convergence analysis. Across Qwen3 models from 0.6B to 4B, OSW‑FT consistently outperforms plain SFT on challenging benchmarks such as AIME, achieving a favorable compute‑performance trade‑off with only two online rollouts.

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has emerged as an effective approach for improving multimodal reasoning. However, most existing methods evaluate an entire response using a binary reward based only on final-answer correctness, thereby discarding the supervision available in intermediate reasoning steps.
