arXiv:2606. 06021v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD) supervises the student only in output space by matching next-token probabilities.
The paper introduces Selective Supervision for Direct-OPD (S$^2$D-OPD), a refinement of Direct On-Policy Distillation that filters out states where the teacher’s policy change is minimal, as measured by the teacher‑reference Jensen‑Shannon divergence. By masking low‑divergence states and keeping only the top 10% of states per response, S$^2$D-OPD improves held‑out accuracy on AIME and HMMT benchmarks across multiple teacher‑student pairs without additional forward passes.

arXiv:2608. 09745v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) converts feedback into dense token-level supervision on trajectories generated by the policy to be optimized, providing a useful complement to reinforcement learning with sparse outcome rewards.
arXiv:2606. 10385v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD) has demonstrated strong empirical gains in enhancing complex reasoning in LLMs by aligning a student model with a teacher's predictive distribution over the student's own trajectories.
