AHEAD is a step‑aware framework that augments reinforcement learning for multi‑turn LLM agents by matching different supervision sources to different step types. The teacher receives environment feedback on all steps and LLM‑generated corrective hints only on error steps, providing finer‑grained guidance than uniform trajectory‑level rewards. Across ALFWorld, WebShop, and Search‑based QA, AHEAD improves task success by 13.3 points on ALFWorld and 11.0 on WebShop at 7B, reaches target success rates faster, and solves tasks within tighter interaction budgets compared to outcome‑only RL and prior self‑distillation baselines.
arXiv:2606. 11559v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning typically improves multi-turn agent capabilities through the terminal outcome of the trajectories, which makes it difficult to determine credit assignments for each intermediate turns.
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.
HINT-SD introduces a targeted self‑distillation framework for long‑horizon language‑model agents that uses full‑trajectory hindsight to identify failure‑relevant actions and applies feedback‑conditioned distillation only to those action spans. This selective approach reduces the need for per‑turn feedback, improving training efficiency and effectiveness. Experiments on BFCL v3 and AppWorld demonstrate that HINT‑SD outperforms dense per‑turn feedback baselines by up to 13.60 percentage points on average while cutting training time per step by 2.26×.
