Learning Multi-Agent Collaborations With Decomposition

slides:none on file

Three papers present concrete algorithms, proofs and results: CollabQ decomposes joint Q into a local Q-alone and a co-collaboration term learned from local reward assignments, runs on StarCraft II multi-agent challenge and raises win rates and robustness to swapped or missing units (ad hoc team play). A policy change density theorem enables a depth-first joint policy search for imperfect-information games and improves bridge bidding, reportedly beating WR5 in double-dummy evaluation. B-BOLT (vs RND) uses episodic delta visitation intrinsic rewards, solves 12 hardest MiniGrid tasks and shows strong NetHack gains.
