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.

The paper introduces Bidirectional Behavior Prior Distillation (B2PD), a method that uses action‑value priors to train a conditional variational autoencoder for generating high‑value behavior support. These expert behavior priors are then distilled into the online reinforcement learning agent, reducing inefficient exploration and stabilizing policy updates. Experiments on state‑ and pixel‑based tasks show that B2PD improves sample efficiency while maintaining stable learning dynamics.
