Weak-to-Strong On-Policy Distillation

49 upvotes · 28 JUL 2026 · Fangxu Yu, Zinan Lin, Xiaodong Liu et al.

This paper introduces a new method for transferring capabilities from multiple weak models to a strong student model in reinforcement learning, allowing the student to surpass the domain teacher. Practitioners may care about this approach for improving the performance of their own reinforcement learning models.
