Multi-Robot Open Adaptive Teaming Across Unseen Environments, Partners, and Scales

arXiv:2607. 04972v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying robot teams in the real world requires simultaneous adaptation to unseen environments, unknown partners, and varying team sizes, yet existing approaches often address these challenges in isolation under the closed-world assumption of fixed teammates.

Probing Dec-POMDP Reasoning in Cooperative MARL

arXiv:2602. 20804v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) is typically framed as a decentralised partially observable Markov decision process (Dec-POMDP), a setting whose hardness stems from two key challenges: partial observability and decentralised coordination.

The Collaboration Gap: Exploration and Benchmarking of Open-World Agentic Cooperation

arXiv:2511. 02687v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The trajectory of AI development suggests that we will increasingly rely on agent-based systems powered by language models, composed of independently developed agents with different information, privileges, and tools.
