Strategic Decisions Survey, Taxonomy, and Future Directions from Artificial Intelligence Perspective

Strategic Decision-Making is always challenging because it is inherently uncertain, ambiguous, risky, and complex. It is the art of possibility. We develop a systematic taxonomy of decision-making...

Solving Without Stopping: On-Policy Distillation at Small Scale

On-policy distillation, where a student learns from a stronger teacher's feedback on its own outputs, is a common way to pass reasoning to smaller models. We analyze what it transfers at small...

Unlocking the Critic: Reward-Free Policy Optimization for LLM Post-Training

Recent approaches to reinforcement learning (RL) post-training for large language models increasingly remove the critic to reduce training instability and memory overhead. Even where a critic is...

Beyond Compression: Diagnosing How Post-Training Changes Mathematical Reasoning

Post-training is central to mathematical reasoning in modern large language models (LLMs), but endpoint pass@1 alone underidentifies what has changed. Gains may reflect newly reachable solutions,...
