Researchers have developed a new reinforcement learning environment called \\\ \gym\\ for training medical AI agents, which spans 10 clinical domains and includes over 135 specialized tools. Initial findings indicated that standard agentic RL approaches led to inefficient training and tool-use degradation. To address this, a novel self-distillation framework called Turn-level Truncated On-Policy Distillation (TT-OPD) was introduced, which improves training stability and performance on several benchmarks.
