Rights, coordination and social action in multiagent domains

An approach to noncommunicative multiagent coordination in continuous domains

Principled game-theoretic techniques exist for solving the problem of action coordination in a group of agents, however they typically suffer from an exponential blowup of the action space when many agents are involved. Coordination graphs (Guestrin et. al., 2002) offer tractable approximations via a context-specific decomposition into smaller coordination problems, and they are based on an ite...

Reinforcement social learning of coordination in cooperative multiagent systems

Coordination in cooperative multiagent systems is an important problem and has received a lot of attention in multiagent learning literature. Most of previous works study the problem of how two (or more) players can coordinate on Pareto-optimal Nash equilibrium(s) through fixed and repeated interactions in the context of cooperative games. However, in practical complex environments, the interac...

Reinforcement Social Learning of Coordination in Networked Cooperative Multiagent Systems

The problem of coordination in cooperative multiagent systems has been widely studied in the literature. In practical complex environments, the interactions among agents are usually regulated by their underlying network topology, which, however, has not been taken into consideration in previous work. To this end, we firstly investigate the multiagent coordination problems in cooperative environ...

COMAS: CoOrdination in MultiAgent Systems

A multiagent system is one in which multiple autonomous agents interact to solve complex tasks. Each agent in a multiagent system has its own set of goals. The central problem addressed in this paper is coordination in multiagent systems. Coordination is a process by which, a system of agents work together harmoniously. The focus of this paper is on two types of coordination, resource coordinat...
