Researchers have introduced EviSD, a novel framework designed to enhance the performance of search-augmented language agents. This evidence-conditioned self-distillation method leverages supporting evidence for search actions and final answers as privileged information during training. By converting the teacher-student gap into a bounded correction for the outcome-derived GRPO advantage, EviSD localizes guidance without altering inference-time behavior. The framework has demonstrated superior performance across seven question-answering benchmarks, achieving the highest Exact Match scores and outperforming existing methods. AI
