User questions adversarial RL paper findings based on new experiments

A Reddit user is questioning findings from a 2020 paper by Zhang et al. regarding adversarial reinforcement learning. The paper proposed that attacks targeting the critic network (V(s)) would be weaker than those targeting the actor network (pi(s)). However, the user's own experiments with multi-agent PPO policies in the VMAS library consistently show the opposite, with critic-based attacks proving more effective. The user is seeking clarification on whether their methodology is flawed or if their results are consistent with the paper's findings given the different experimental contexts. AI
