The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

the framework incorporates reinforcement learning to overcome the imitation ceiling of traditional distillation, enabling the student to verify, refine, and optimize teacher knowledge through dynamic environmental interaction, potentially achieving more robust decision-making than the teacher itself.

C2weakest assumption

That reinforcement learning via environmental interaction will allow the student to surpass the teacher's decision quality in real multi-agent scenarios without introducing instability, reward hacking, or extra latency that violates real-time constraints.

C3one line summary

MAVEN-T uses a hybrid-attention teacher, efficient student, multi-granular distillation with curriculum learning, and reinforcement learning to achieve 6.2x model compression and 3.7x faster inference while matching state-of-the-art accuracy on NGSIM and highD datasets.
