Convergence to (Coarse) Correlated Equilibria in Full-Information General-Sum Markov Games

Weichao Mao, Haoran Qiu, Chen Wang +3

No-regret learning has a long history of being closely connected to game theory. Recent works have devised uncoupled no-regret learning dynamics that, when adopted by all the playe…

Model-Free Non-Stationary RL: Near-Optimal Regret and Applications in Multi-Agent RL and Inventory Control

Weichao Mao, Kaiqing Zhang, Ruihao Zhu +2

We consider model-free reinforcement learning (RL) in non-stationary Markov decision processes. Both the reward functions and the state transition functions are allowed to vary arb…
