Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) trains a few-step student from the difference between separately estimated target and student scores, so it must keep an auxiliary diffusion model fitted to the student's evolving distribution at extra memory and computation cost.

Online reinforcement learning (RL) fine-tunes diffusion models with black-box rewards, but reverse-process methods such as Flow-GRPO are limited in efficiency by poor credit assignment, while forward-process methods such as DiffusionNFT are efficient yet unstable without…
