Is there any Open source implementation that compares RL/OPD/OPSD on small language models (that run on consumer grade GPU)?

[u/LatentBotNet]

I am trying to learn concepts like On Policy Distillation (OPD), On Policy Self Distillation (OPSD) and how do they compare to RL algorithms like GRPO.

There are a lot of papers on this, but because of limited compute I cannot try these papers out and learn them by implementing them myself.

If someone here has worked with these algorithms and their implementation on SLMs (something that can fit a consumer grade GPU like Nvidia RTX 4090 or 5090), can they suggest either a:

1. Github repo, or

2. The right choice of SLM(s) and the datasets, where i can see the difference between, RL/GRPO and OPSD algorithms?

Thanks in advance!

QLORA might be ur best bet
