Abstract
The multiple pursuers and evaders game may be represented as a Markov game. Using this modeling, one may interpret each player as a decentralized unit that has to work independently in order to complete a task. This is a distributed multiagent decision problem and several different possible solutions have already been proposed. However, most solutions require some sort of central coordination. In this paper, we intend to model each player as a learning automaton and let them evolve and adapt in order to solve the difficult problem they have at hand. We are also going to show that, using the proposed learning process, the players’ policies will converge to an equilibrium point. Simulations of such scenarios with multiple pursuers and evaders are presented in order to show the feasibility of the approach.

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
