Abstract
A standard assumption of search in two-player games is that the opponent has the same evaluation function or utility for possible game outcomes. While some work has been done to try to better exploit weak opponents, it has only been a minor component of high-performance game playing programs such as Chinook or Deep Blue. However, we demonstrate that in games with more than two players, opponent modeling is a necessary component for ensuring high-quality play against unknown opponents. Thus, we propose a new algorithm, soft-maxn, which can help accommodate differences in opponent styles. Finally, we show an inference mechanism that can be used with soft-maxn to infer the playing style of our opponents.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
