Cooperative multi-agent learning: The state of the art

L Panait, S Luke - Autonomous agents and multi-agent systems, 2005 - Springer
Cooperative multi-agent systems (MAS) are ones in which several agents attempt, through
their interaction, to jointly solve tasks or to maximize utility. Due to the interactions among the …

Dynamic pricing by software agents

JO Kephart, JE Hanson, AR Greenwald - Computer Networks, 2000 - Elsevier
We envision a future in which the global economy and the Internet will merge, evolving into
an information economy bustling with billions of economically motivated software agents that …

[KNJIGA][B] An analysis of stochastic game theory for multiagent reinforcement learning

M Bowling, M Veloso - 2000 - Citeseer
Learning behaviors in a multiagent environment is crucial for develo** and adapting
multiagent systems. Reinforcement learning techniques have addressed this problem for a …

A mathematical model for the two-learners problem

JS Müller, C Vidaurre, M Schreuder… - Journal of neural …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
Objective. We present the first generic theoretical formulation of the co-adaptive learning
problem and give a simple example of two interacting linear learning systems, a human and …

Congregation formation in multiagent systems

CH Brooks, EH Durfee - Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, 2003 - Springer
We present congregating both as a metaphor for describing and modeling multiagent
systems (MAS) and as a means for reducing coordination costs in large-scale MAS. When …

Practically coordinating

EH Durfee - AI Magazine, 1999 - ojs.aaai.org
To coordinate, intelligent agents might need to know something about themselves, about
each other, about how others view themselves and others, about how others think others …

Resource allocation games with changing resource capacities

A Galstyan, S Kolar, K Lerman - Proceedings of the second international …, 2003 - dl.acm.org
In this paper we study a class of resource allocation games which are inspired by the El
Farol Bar problem. We consider a system of competitive agents that have to choose between …

Learning about other agents in a dynamic multiagent system

J Hu, MP Weliman - Cognitive Systems Research, 2001 - Elsevier
We analyze the problem of learning about other agents in a class of dynamic multiagent
systems, where performance of the primary agent depends on behavior of the others. We …
