Proposal of PSwithEFP and its Evaluation in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Abstract

When multiple agents learn a task simultaneously in an environment, the learning results often become unstable. This problem is known as the concurrent learning problem and to date, several methods have been proposed to resolve it. In this paper, we propose a new method that incorporates expected failure probability (EFP) into the action selection strategy to give agents a kind of mutual adaptability. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed using Keepaway task.
