Abstract
In this paper, the solution of large-scale real-time optimization problems of multi-agent systems (MAS) is tackled in a distributed and a cooperative manner without the requirement of exact knowledge of network connectivity. Each agent in the communication network measures a local disagreement cost in addition to its local cost. The agents must work collaboratively to ensure that the system's unknown overall cost (i.e., the sum of the local cost of all the agents) is minimized. In order to minimize this cost, the local disagreement cost of all the agents must first be minimized. This minimization requires the solution of a consensus estimation problem and ensures that the agents reach agreement on their decision variables. To address this challenging problem, a distributed proportional-integral extremum seeking control technique is proposed, one that solves both problems simultaneously. Three simulation examples are included, they demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed technique.

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
