Flow-OPD trains one specialist teacher per reward, then distills them on-policy into one SD 3.5 student — lifting GenEval 0.63 to 0.92 and OCR 0.59 to 0.94 without the aesthetic collapse of multi-reward GRPO.
AI Agents · University of Science and Technology of China
Skill1 trains a single Qwen2.5-7B policy to retrieve, apply, and create reusable skills under one task-outcome reward — reaching 97.5% on ALFWorld, 6.5 points over the strongest RL-only baseline.

Stream-R1 reweights DMD losses by video reward scores and per-region perplexity instead of treating signals equally. Its 1.3B streaming model hits 84.40 VBench at 23.1 FPS, beating its 14B teacher's 84.26 for free.

Stream-T1 adds test-time search to streaming video generation without retraining, lifting VideoAlign motion quality from 0.350 to 0.629 at 5s and cutting the drift that wrecks 30-second clips.
