Self-Distillation Policy Optimization via Visual Feedback: Bridging Code and Visual Artifacts

Code-generating large language models (LLMs) increasingly produce visual artifacts such as charts, web pages, and slides by writing programs that are executed by non-differentiable renderers, committing to code before observing the render. As a result, otherwise executable code often yields artifacts with visually salient defects, including overlapping elements, clipped text, broken alignment, low contrast, and overflow. We study visual-feedback self-distillation for code-generated visual artifacts. We propose Visual-SDPO, a self-distillation policy-optimization framework that treats rendered visual feedback as privileged context for a weight-sharing teacher and distills this feedback int...
