Abstract
We consider an online learning setting where at each time step the decision maker has to choose how to distribute the future loss between k alternatives, and then observes the loss of each alternative. Motivated by load balancing and job scheduling, we consider a global cost function (over the losses incurred by each alternative), rather than a summation of the instantaneous losses as done traditionally in online learning. Such global cost functions include the makespan (the maximum over the alternatives) and the Ld norm (over the alternatives). Based on approachability theory, we design an algorithm that guarantees vanishing regret for this setting, where the regret is measured with respect to the best static decision that selects the same distribution over alternatives at every time step. For the special case of makespan cost we devise a simple and efficient algorithm. In contrast, we show that for concave global cost functions, such as Ld norms for d < 1, the worst-case average regret does not vanish.

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
