arXiv:2606. 29820v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In complex continuous-control reinforcement learning tasks, multimodal optimal actions often coincide with uncertain, multimodal return distributions, making reliable value estimation and multimodal exploration challenging.
The paper introduces OMAF, an Online MARL framework that uses a one-step Transformer-based flow policy to generate coordinated actions efficiently. By replacing costly iterative sampling with a single-step action generation and a joint optimization scheme that couples softmax Q-value estimation with flow policy objectives, OMAF maintains expressive multimodal behavior while improving training speed. Experiments on 10 tasks from MPE and MAMuJoCo demonstrate up to 3.4× higher returns and 10.5× better sample efficiency compared to baseline methods.

The paper introduces SCOUT, an offline multi-agent reinforcement learning framework that combines a generative behavioral prior with a decomposed value function for test-time action refinement. SCOUT uses optimal unified transport and Stein variational gradient descent to steer behavioral samples toward high-value regions, with the number of transport steps providing adaptive scaling. The authors prove a single-term KL bound on the joint soft-value gap under the individual-global-max principle and demonstrate that SCOUT outperforms existing methods on both discrete and continuous offline MARL benchmarks, including offline-to-online settings.

arXiv:2601. 22211v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) with combinatorial action spaces remains challenging because feasible action sets are exponentially large and governed by complex feasibility constraints, making direct policy parameterization impractical.
The paper introduces Stochastic MeanFlow Policies (SMFP), a one‑step generative policy class that merges MeanFlow noise‑to‑action mappings with Gaussian reparameterisation. SMFP captures diverse action modes while providing an analytic entropy lower bound through a learnable conditional Gaussian scale, enabling entropy‑regularised mirror‑descent learning. Experiments on seven MuJoCo benchmarks show SMFP outperforming Gaussian and generative baselines, and additional tests demonstrate effective multimodal action modelling and exploration in sparse‑reward navigation.
