An In-Depth Analysis of Discretization Methods for Communication Learning using Backpropagation with Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Astrid Vanneste, Simon Vanneste, Kevin Mets +3

Communication is crucial in multi-agent reinforcement learning when agents are not able to observe the full state of the environment. The most common approach to allow learned comm…
