Learning What to Practice: Diagnosis-Guided Self-Evolution for Language Models

Self-play supports the self-evolution of language models, but solver performance can plateau or decline across rounds without guidance. Existing unguided methods typically use difficulty, learnability, or diversity signals to keep questions challenging and varied, without identifying which unresolved reasoning weakness...

Better Supervision Is Nearby: Neighborhood On-Policy Self-Distillation

On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) trains mathematical reasoning models using a privileged teacher that sees a reference solution and supervises student-sampled prefixes. Standard OPSD uses one fixed parameter setting at every state, but nearby settings may offer additional supervision. We find that local parameter per...

SAF-OPD: Stable Advantage Fusion for On-Policy Distillation

SA is proposed, a Stable Advantage Fusion framework that avoids entropy collapse and consistently outperforms fixed-coefficient GRPO+OPD fusion, improving the aggregate score by 0.70% across all six model-domain settings while achieving more stable training.

DiagEvo: Diagnosis-Guided Self-Evolution via Hierarchical Error Memory

DagEvo is introduced, whose diagnostician extracts recurring error causes from this history and stores them in a hierarchical error-cause memory, whose diagnostician extracts recurring error causes from this history and stores them in a hierarchical error-cause memory.

EviReform: Evidence-Guided Query Reformulation for Multi-Hop Graph Retrieval

Results show that observed evidence can guide graph retrieval toward the part of a supporting chain left underspecified by the original question, and introduce EviReform, which separates revising the retrieval request from aggregating evidence in the graph.
