u-OPSD: Self-Distillation Without Labels or Teachers Beats GRPO on Math Reasoning
burny_tech · x · 2026-08-12
u-OPSD is a novel self-distillation method for language models. It requires no external labels, verifiers, or teacher models. Instead, it enables a model to improve itself by majority-voting across its own multiple rollouts and then distilling knowledge specifically on the disagreements.
Experiments show that this approach outperforms both supervised OPSD and GRPO on mathematical reasoning tasks.
