| Challenge: | Existing approaches restrict students to following a single golden rationale and treat different reasoning paths independently, causing suboptimal performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a capability-adaptive framework that transitions distillation from passive mimicry to active cognitive construction and employ a feedback-driven inertia calibration mechanism to align supervision with the student’s current adaptability. |
| Outcome: | Experiments show that the proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on both in-distribution and out-of distribution benchmarks. |
