JaxAHT: A JAX-Based Library for Ad Hoc Teamwork
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.13716v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ad Hoc Teamwork (AHT) addresses the challenge of designing agents capable of coordinating with novel partners without prior coordination. However, progress in the field is hindered by the prohibitive computational cost of the AHT research lifecycle, the lack of standardized benchmark implementations, and the absence of a diverse, validated evaluation teammate suite. In this work, we introduce JaxAHT, the first open-source, JAX-based library designed to accelerate and standardize the AHT research lifecycle. Leveraging JAX's hardware acceleration a

Why it matters
The value of this work lies as much in how it was tested as in the claim itself. Sample design, baselines, uncertainty and replication help separate a laboratory result from real-world impact.
