Abstract:

We present a new algorithm for cooperative reinforcement learning in multiagent systems. Our main concern is the correct coordination between the members of the team: We seek to obtain an optimal solution for the team as a whole while keeping the learning as much decentralized as possible. We consider autonomous and independently learning agents that do not store any explicit information about their teammates ’ behavior, as well as possibly different reward functions for each agent. Coordination between agents occurs through communication, namely the mutual notification algorithm. 1.
