Coordinating payload transfers between subsystems is a critical challenge in lifelong Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery (MAPD). We study systems where agents are confined to separate regions and must exchange payloads through shared handover stations.
arXiv:2608. 06702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Lifelong Multi-Agent Path Finding (LMAPF) requires generating collision-free paths for large agent fleets under strict real-time constraints.

arXiv:2606. 30694v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traffic signal control at urban intersections inherently introduces stop-and-go behavior, resulting in increased delays and reduced traffic efficiency, especially under high traffic demand.

arXiv:2608. 17928v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the Lifelong Multi-Agent Path Finding (L-MAPF) problem, agents must repeatedly move from one destination to another while avoiding obstacles and inter-agent collisions.

arXiv:2601. 04884v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Executing a multi-agent plan can be challenging when an agent is delayed, because this typically creates conflicts with other agents.

arXiv:2607. 24336v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: City-scale autonomous vehicle fleet coordinators are typically optimized for aggregate travel time, yet fleet averages conceal how delay is distributed across trips and regions.

arXiv:2607. 21488v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Coordinating autonomous vehicles at unsignalized intersections remains a critical challenge for multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) systems, which typically struggle with combinatorial action spaces, reliance on privileged information, or rigid agent designs.

arXiv:2607. 00064v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As technology advances, many path-planning algorithms have been proposed for Air Traffic Management, yet their operational adoption in tactical control remains limited, revealing a misalignment between algorithmic design priorities and air traffic controllers' needs.
