SRMT: Shared Memory for Multi-agent Lifelong Pathfinding

The paper introduces the Shared Recurrent Memory Transformer (SRMT), a decentralized multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework that uses a global memory workspace for agents to broadcast and query each other’s learned states. SRMT is evaluated on the Partially Observable Multi‑Agent Pathfinding (PO‑MAPF) problem, showing that shared memory enables emergent coordination even with minimal reward guidance and outperforms existing baselines on the Bottleneck task and scales competitively on larger POGEMA maps. The authors provide open‑source code for training and evaluation on GitHub.
