Teaching the Way, Not the Answer: Privileged Tutoring Distillation for Multimodal Policy Optimization

arXiv:2606.07000v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent post-training methods, particularly Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR), have significantly enhanced the reasoning ability of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs). However, the sparse nature of verifiable rewards provides little token-level supervision for failed rollouts, often leading to inefficient exploration in complex multimodal reasoning tasks. Although policy distillation can offer dense guidance, external teacher based methods introduce substantial computational overhead, while answer conditioned tuning methods m
