Multi-Objective Coordination Graphs for the Expected Scalarised Returns with Generative Flow Models

Conor F. Hayes, Timothy Verstraeten, Diederik M. Roijers +2

Many real-world problems contain multiple objectives and agents, where a trade-off exists between objectives. Key to solving such problems is to exploit sparse dependency structure…
