Hyperparameters fine tuning for MARL comparative study [D]

Excerpt

hello everyone. I'm training PPO variants on different multi-agent tasks from the VMAS library (Independent PPO / Graph PPO and such, see HetGPPO by Bettini et al.). I noticed that for every architecture/scenario couple, the optimal hyperparameters sometimes tend to vary (learning rate, entropy coefficient, KL coefficient, SGD batch size, etc). do I need - methodologically speaking - to unify the hyperparameters of all models in order to make a fair and correct comparison of architectures later
