Abstract
This paper considers the scheduling, rate adaptation, and buffer management in a multiuser wireless local-area network (WLAN) where each user transmits scalable video payload. Based on opportunistic scheduling, users access the available medium (channel) in a decentralized manner. The rate adaptation problem of the WLAN multimedia networks is then formulated as a general-sum switching control dynamic Markovian game by modelling the video states and block fading channel qualities of each user as a finite states Markovian chain. A value iteration algorithm is proposed to compute the Nash equilibrium policy of such a game and the convergence of the algorithm is also proved. We also give assumptions on the system so that the Nash equilibrium transmission policy of each user is a randomization of two pure policies with each policy nondecreasing on the buffer state occupancy. Based on this structural result, we use the policy gradient algorithm to compute the Nash equilibrium policy.

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
