VAD: Attributing Visual Evidence for Target Reconstruction in Multimodal On-Policy Distillation
Multimodal on-policy distillation (OPD) transfers fine-grained visual knowledge by supervising student-generated trajectories with a privileged-view teacher. Yet its next-token corrections are source-mixed, combining visual signals with linguistic priors and teacher-specific effects. The key challenge is to estimate which corrections are supported by visual evidence, not merely where or how strongly to distill. We introduce Visual Attribution Distillation (VAD), a counterfactual target-reconstru
