We propose a framework for reward allocation in fully delegated AI cooperatives where humans are represented by agents that contribute data and participate in model updates under heterogeneous value constraints. The key idea is to credit only those updates that remain admissible after screening them against each principal's value profile. We formulate value-conditioned gradient filtering, online marginal contribution signals, and cumulative revenue settlement within a traversal learning (TL) substrate. TL is especially attractive here because it performs decentralized backpropagation without the quality loss associated with aggregation-centric distributed learning and, we argue, offers a finer attribution substrate than FedAvg-style federated learning by preserving explicit traversal and gradient paths. The framework is positioned against data valuation, federated contribution estimation, personalized federated learning, and pluralistic alignment.
Agentic AI systems are reshaping communications and networking by deploying autonomous intelligent agents capable of collaborative learning while maintaining data privacy at network edges. Within distributed network environments, Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) serve as…
Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance, but often at prohibitive training cost - a challenge that is especially acute for compact models ($\leq 4 \, \mathrm{B}$ parameters) trained under limited budgets. We introduce MADA-RL, a post-training framework that spe…
As agentic AI systems are increasingly applied to cyber-physical environments, their evaluation requires assessment of both task performance and trustworthiness. In decentralized energy markets, autonomous agents may improve market utility, but may also exploit invalid physical d…
Routing to select large language models (LLMs) with different cost-quality trade-offs has become a fundamental deployment feature of enterprise AI. Existing routers, primarily make independent routing decisions for each LLM call. However, agentic applications execute as long-hori…
The rapid progress of AI has intensified the long-standing pursuit of automation: replacing human participation with algorithms wherever possible. Implicit in this pursuit is the assumption that humans remain in the loop only because current AI systems are not yet sufficiently ca…
Tool and agent routing from natural-language prompts is naturally a set-valued prediction problem: a single query may require multiple agents, while over-selection increases execution cost. The benchmark introduced here is derived from WildChat and contains 3,000 prompts over a f…
