MARL, Part 4: Multi-Agent Policy Gradients
Joint policy gradients, deterministic actor–critic updates, and the sequential importance corrections behind HAPPO.
Joint policy gradients, deterministic actor–critic updates, and the sequential importance corrections behind HAPPO.
Local information constraints, centralized critics, and why an agent’s memory matters even when training observes the state.
Shared rewards, counterfactual policy gradients, and additive or monotonic value decomposition for cooperative agents.
Joint policies, best responses, and Nash equilibria, with a minimax Bellman equation and contraction proof for zero-sum Markov games.
