UC-PSRO: Utility-Conditioned Policy-Space Response Oracles with a Communication-Dropout Curriculum for Game-Theoretic Course-of-Action Generation in Adversarial Swarms
We study generating game-theoretically optimized Courses of Action (COAs) for a Blue UAS swarm against an adaptive Red adversary in a communication-degraded environment, motivated by (but not derived from) a public U.S. Air Force SBIR solicitation. We propose UC-PSRO (Utility-Conditioned Policy-Space Response Oracles with a Communication-Dropout Curriculum), combining three mechanisms: (i) PSRO self-play, so Blue and Red policies train as approximate best responses to each other rather than one side against a fixed scripted opponent; (ii) FiLM conditioning of the Blue policy on a Commander's-Intent weight vector, sampled from a Dirichlet distribution during training, so one trained policy...
