# Introduction

**AMPO**, a novel framework that intelligently leverages guidance from multiple, diverse teacher models, intervening only when the on-policy model fails. Our two core contributions, Adaptive Multi-Guidance Replacement and Comprehension-based Guidance Selection, ensure that this external knowledge is used both efficiently and effectively.

### Key Highlights:
- **Adaptive Multi-Guidance Replacement**: Minimizes intervention by providing external guidance only upon complete on-policy failure, preserving self-discovery while enhancing reasoning efficiency.
- **Comprehension-based Guidance Selection**: Improves learning effectiveness by guiding the model to assimilate the most comprehensible external solutions, demonstrably boosting performance.
- **Superior Performance:** Achieves better performance and efficiency compared to using RL or SFT alone.


### Multi-Guidance Pool

Teacher Models: AceReason-Nemotron-1.1-7B, DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B, OpenR1-Qwen-7B, Qwen3-8B(thinking)

## Inference Example

Here’s an example of using AMPO for inference:

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

model_path = "SII-Enigma/Llama3.2-8B-Ins-AMPO"

question = "which number is larger? 9.11 or 9.9?"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path)
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": question}]
chat = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)

llm = LLM(model=model_path)
params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.6, max_tokens=8192)
outputs = llm.generate([chat], params)
print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
```
