Abstract
This article investigates the problem of distributed channel selection for opportunistic spectrum access systems, where multiple cognitive radio (CR) users are spatially located and mutual interference only emerges between neighboring users. In addition, there is no information exchange among CR users. We first propose a MAC-layer interference minimization game, in which the utility of a player is defined as a function of the number of neighbors competing for the same channel. We prove that the game is a potential game with the optimal Nash equilibrium (NE) point minimizing the aggregate MAC-layer interference. Although this result is promising, it is challenging to achieve a NE point without information exchange, not to mention the optimal one. The reason is that traditional algorithms belong to coupled algorithms which need information of other users during the convergence towards NE solutions. We propose two uncoupled learning algorithms, with which the CR users intelligently learn the desirable actions from their individual action-utility history. Specifically, the first algorithm asymptotically minimizes the aggregate MAC-layer interference and needs a common control channel to assist learning scheduling, and the second one does not need a control channel and averagely achieves suboptimal solutions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
