Abstract
We consider a multi-user mobile offloading network with multiple computing access points (CAPs). Each user has one task to be processed, and may choose to reduce the cost of processing the task by offloading it to a CAP or to a remote cloud server. Each user belongs to one of a fixed number of classes, which determines the distribution of their task parameters. We aim to produce an offloading decision that minimizes the expected social cost of the system, while giving selfish users an incentive to follow that decision. Towards that goal, we show that our system can be formulated as a class-anonymous game, and we derive the reduced form of this game to prove that a socially optimal correlated equilibrium (CE) can be computed in polynomial time and space with respect to the number of users. Like the Nash Equilibrium, the CE maintains the necessary conditions for stability in a system with rational and selfish users, while being much easier to compute for non-potential finite games. Simulation results demonstrate the superior results of our solution when compared with random mapping and an alternate means of computing a CE.

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
