arXiv:2608. 08604v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) is a powerful framework for solving complex collaborative tasks, but it relies heavily on well-defined global reward functions.

arXiv:2606. 11284v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world multi-agent systems, from traffic coordination to resource allocation, are often modeled as general-sum games where individual incentives conflict with collective welfare.

arXiv:2606. 18537v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Humans often acquire new skills by observing others, since observed behaviors implicitly reveal how to act in an environment.

We’re releasing a Neural MMO, a massively multiagent game environment for reinforcement learning agents. Our platform supports a large, variable number of agents within a persistent and open-ended task.
arXiv:2607. 27574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Activation steering has emerged in large language models as a lightweight alternative for dynamically changing a model's behavior at inference time.

arXiv:2504. 16129v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based Multi-Agent Systems (LaMAS) have demonstrated strong capabilities on complex agentic tasks requiring multifaceted reasoning and collaboration, from high-quality presentation generation to scientific research.

arXiv:2508. 14751v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study goal-conditioned reinforcement learning in partially observable environments with sparse rewards and large, structured goal spaces.

arXiv:2607. 18719v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study proposes a learning method for multi-agent systems that allows agents to be controlled through human manager instructions after learning and enables uninstructed agents to implicitly complement the overall work based on the actions of other agents.

arXiv:2606. 02859v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: How can a population of agents self-orchestrate and self-adapt into stronger collective intelligence without centralized control?

arXiv:2607. 11250v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Exploration is essential for reliable autonomy in multi-agent systems, yet it remains unclear whether large language model (LLM) agents can explore effectively when interacting with one another.

arXiv:2607. 08647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As autonomous agents are increasingly deployed across diverse operational contexts, aligning their behavior with human intent demands reward functions that remain robust to such changes rather than overfitting to any single environment.

arXiv:2606. 28152v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose KL-Coupled Policy Regularization (KCPR), a policy coordination framework for Reward-Punishment Reinforcement Learning (RPRL).
