A new staged procedure called TREK (Teacher-Routed Exploration via Forward KL) has been introduced to improve the performance of AI models, particularly in complex reasoning tasks. TREK utilizes distillation not for direct imitation but to expand the model's exploration capabilities by incorporating verified solutions. This method has shown significant improvements on mathematical reasoning benchmarks like AIME 2024 and 2025 when applied to models such as DeepSeek-V4 and Qwen3, and also enhances performance on agentic tasks like ALFWorld and ScienceWorld.
