Any-OPD: Cross-Architecture On-Policy Distillation for Flow-Matching
August 3, 2026
Any-OPD enables on-policy distillation between heterogeneous flow-matching models, such as a teacher and student with different VAE latents or architectures. It uses representation-space bridging to allow distillation even when models do not share a common coordinate system.
