+## Overview
+
+**DiffusionOPSD** is an on-policy self-distillation framework for reward-guided diffusion post-training. A frozen behavior policy collects on-policy denoising states and clean-output anchors; differentiable reward gradients construct bounded positive and negative targets around each anchor; and the trainable policy fits these detached targets before an EMA update refreshes the behavior policy.
+
+By turning image-level rewards into explicit, continually refreshed intermediate supervision, DiffusionOPSD makes **target construction** and **finite realization** separately observable. Across SD3.5-M and Z-Image-Turbo, it achieves the best final held-out score in **19 of 20** reward-matched settings and reduces training GPU-hours relative to DiffusionNFT by **40%** and **63%**, respectively.
