Visiting Researcher

  • Proposed novel algorithms for joint decision making among multiple agents using reinforcement learning, and analyzed the performance of the proposed algorithms.
  • Considered the case where each agent aims to optimize a joint objective function of the long-term rewards of all the agents which can be non-linear or non-smooth.
  • Provided convergence proofs to the optimal function without the knowledge of the transition probability.
  • To the best of our knowledge no such formal proof exists in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning(MARL).
  • Proposed a novel Algorithm for achieving Mean-Field Equilibrium(MFE) in MARL using Posterior Sampling. Showed that the limiting distribution constitute a MFE.
