The paper investigates the theoretical limits of transfer learning, demonstrating that careful selection of transferable information and its dependence on target problems is crucial. It establishes that the degree of probabilistic change in a transfer-learning algorithm imposes an upper bound on achievable improvement. These findings extend the algorithmic search framework to a broad class of learning tasks involving transfer.

The paper introduces Patterns of Past Rewards (PPR), a lightweight, algorithm‑agnostic online change‑point detector for cooperative multi‑agent reinforcement learning. PPR smooths agents’ return streams, highlights recent changes, and applies a statistical drift detector to flag significant shifts. Experiments in a custom Speaker‑Listener environment show that PPR balances detection speed and alarm stability, outperforming both a smoothed‑return baseline and a raw‑return detector.
