ReTeach: Building a Self-Teacher through Multi-Round Reflection and Retry

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.11529v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-distillation can improve reasoning without a separately trained, more capable teacher, but its effectiveness depends on how the self-teacher gains an advantage over the student. Conditioning the teacher on reference answers or solutions can provide such an advantage, but this information may be unavailable. Reflection offers a way to derive explicit error diagnoses and revision guidance from self-generated attempts, yet existing reflection-based methods often combine it with reference information, rich task feedback, or persistent memory. We introduce ReTeach, a Reflective self-distillation framework that constructs its self-Teacher through multi-round reflection and retry using only self-generated attempts and outcome-level verification
