WDL-OPD: Weak-Driven On-Policy Distillation via Mixture-Constrained Co-Training

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2608. 09447v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD) aligns a student with a teacher on trajectories sampled from the student itself, reducing the train-test state mismatch of offline distillation.

SR-OPSD: Self-Referenced On-Policy Self-Distillation

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.
