Researchers have introduced DeltaPrompts, a novel method to improve the distillation process for vision-language models (VLMs). The study reveals that many existing prompts provide minimal learning signals because the teacher and student models already produce similar outputs. DeltaPrompts addresses this by focusing on prompts that expose capability gaps, quantified by answer divergence. This approach involves a staged synthesis pipeline that generates high-divergence reasoning problems, leading to substantial performance gains, including up to a 15% relative improvement on models like Qwen3-VL-8B-Thinking across various reasoning benchmarks.
