Multiagent Fully Decentralized Value Function Learning With Linear Convergence Rates

Ali H. Sayed, Kun Yuan, Lucas Cesar Eduardo Cassano

This article develops a fully decentralized multiagent algorithm for policy evaluation. The proposed scheme can be applied to two distinct scenarios. In the first scenario, a collection of agents have distinct datasets gathered by following different behav ...

Logical Team Q-learning: An approach towards factored policies in cooperative MARL

Ali H. Sayed, Lucas Cesar Eduardo Cassano

We address the challenge of learning factored policies in cooperative MARL scenarios. In particular, we consider the situation in which a team of agents collaborates to optimize a common cost. The goal is to obtain factored policies that determine the indi ...

Distributed Value-Function Learning with Linear Convergence Rates

Ali H. Sayed, Kun Yuan, Lucas Cesar Eduardo Cassano

In this paper we develop a fully decentralized algorithm for policy evaluation with off-policy learning and linear function approximation. The proposed algorithm is of the variance reduced kind and achieves linear convergence with O(1) memory requirements. ...

Team Policy Learning For Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Ali H. Sayed, Sulaiman A S A E Alghunaim, Lucas Cesar Eduardo Cassano

This work presents a fully distributed algorithm for learning the optimal policy in a multi-agent cooperative reinforcement learning scenario. We focus on games that can only be solved through coordinated team work. We consider situations in which K player ...
