TTPO: Test-Time Policy Optimization
Label-free post-training method that exploits an asymmetric failure mode in majority-vote pseudo-labels: rollouts that disagree with the pseudo-label are usually wrong regardless of the vote. Distills agreeing rollouts via On-Policy Self-Distillation and penalizes disagreeing rollouts with Grouped RL. Without ground-truth labels, TTPO matches label-supervised OPSD on five competition benchmarks and lifts Qwen3-1.7B from 38.0% to 45.2%.
