DecisionRank trains a one-pass reranker to use conditional feedback from a generative teacher. It sorts the student’s first-token candidate scores, conditions the teacher on that ranking, and aligns choice distributions over candidate identities; at inference, the student scores once and sorts. On TREC DL19–23, its 1.7B student surpasses the 27B teacher, under the reported evaluation.
