Adaptive orchestration of heterogeneous agents requires making sequential delegation decisions under uncertain and evolving agent behaviour, e.g., coordinating specialised AI models with varying reliability, cost, and response quality. While prior work on agent orchestration focuses on performance or cost, uncertainty in agent reliability and output distributions is typically not modelled explicitly at the orchestration level. In this work, we study the problem of adaptive orchestration of heterogeneous agents under uncertainty, where a meta-controller must decide when to delegate to an agent, accounting for reliability, cost, and uncertainty. We propose BOT-Orch, a lightweight framework that recasts orchestration as a bandit problem over agents, regularized by OT distances between agent output distributions and task-specific reference distributions. We show that the regularised orchestration enjoys $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{T})$ regret under standard assumptions, and provably induces preference ordering among agents with identical mean rewards but differing distributional alignment. Empirically, we demonstrate that BOT-Orch outperforms standard bandit and heuristic baselines in synthetic but adversarial task allocation settings with heterogeneous, non-i.i.d. agent behaviour.

The manifold hypothesis posits that high-dimensional data typically resides on low-dimensional sub spaces. In this paper, we assume manifold hypothesis to investigate graph-based semi-supervised learning methods. In particular, we examine Laplace Learning in the Wasserstein space, extending the classical notion of graph-based semi-supervised learning algorithms from finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces to an infinite-dimensional setting. To achieve this, we prove variational convergence of a discrete graph p- Dirichlet energy to its continuum counterpart. In addition, we characterize the Laplace-Beltrami operator on asubmanifold of the Wasserstein space. Finally, we validate the proposed theoretical framework through numerical experiments conducted on benchmark datasets, demonstrating the consistency of our classification performance in high-dimensional settings.
