摘要
arXiv:2605.31159v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student on prefixes sampled from its own policy while matching a stronger teacher. This addresses the prefix mismatch of offline distillation, but early student rollouts can still be poor, placing teacher supervision on weak or low-quality prefixes. We propose Trust-Region behavior Blending (TRB), a warmup method that replaces the early rollout policy with the closest-to-teacher behavior policy inside a student-centered KL trust region, while keeping the per-prefix reverse-KL OPD loss unchanged. The KL budget is annealed to zero, so training returns to pure student rollouts after warmup. Across two math-reasoning distillation settings, TRB attains the strongest average among the compared methods.
