KD-MARL: Resource-Aware Knowledge Distillation in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Real world deployment of multi agent reinforcement learning MARL systems is fundamentally constrained by limited compute memory and inference time. While expert policies achieve high performance they rely on costly decision cycles and large scale models that are impractical for edge devices or embedded platforms. Knowledge distillation KD offers a promising path toward resource aware execution but existing KD methods in MARL focus narrowly on action imitation often neglecting coordination structure and assuming uniform agent capabilities. We propose resource aware Knowledge Distillation for Multi Agent Reinforcement Learning KD MARL a two stage framework that transfers coordinated behavio...
