EMAgnet replaces uniform-magnet regularization in PPO self-play with an EMA of last-iterate policy parameters and reports lower exploitability on most tested zero-sum benchmarks, especially those with dominated strategies.
On-policy distillation gains efficiency from early foresight in module allocation and update directions, which the proposed EffOPD method exploits for 3x faster training with comparable performance.
