Decentralized Optimal Equilibrium Learning Over Dynamic Networks

Seref Taha Kiremitci, Muhammed O. Sayin

This paper studies decentralized learning of socially optimal equilibria in finite normal-form games over dynamic communication networks. Each agent observes only its own realized…

Decentralized Optimal Equilibrium Learning in Stochastic Games via Single-bit Feedback

Seref Taha Kiremitci, Ahmed Said Donmez, Muhammed O. Sayin

We study decentralized equilibrium selection in stochastic games under severe information and communication constraints. In such settings, convergence to equilibrium alone is insuf…

Actor-Dual-Critic Dynamics for Zero-sum and Identical-Interest Stochastic Games

Ahmed Said Donmez, Yuksel Arslantas, Muhammed O. Sayin

We propose a novel independent and payoff-based learning framework for stochastic games that is model-free, game-agnostic, and gradient-free. The learning dynamics follow a best-re…

Omniscient Attacker in Stochastic Security Games with Interdependent Nodes

Yuksel Arslantas, Ahmed Said Donmez, Ege Yuceel +1

The adoption of reinforcement learning for critical infrastructure defense introduces a vulnerability where sophisticated attackers can strategically exploit the defense algorithm'…

Controlling Traffic without Tolls: A Non-Monetary Framework for Autonomous Intersections

Arda Kosay, Yusuf Saltan, Jyun-Jhe Wang +2

The increasing complexity of urban transportation systems, driven by connected and automated vehicles, calls for new modeling paradigms and scalable control strategies. We propose…

Achieving Pareto Optimality in Games via Single-bit Feedback

Seref Taha Kiremitci, Ahmed Said Donmez, Muhammed O. Sayin

Efficient coordination in multi-agent systems often incurs high communication overhead or slow convergence rates, making scalable welfare optimization difficult. We propose Single-…

Generalized Individual Q-learning for Polymatrix Games with Partial Observations

Ahmed Said Donmez, Muhammed O. Sayin

This paper addresses the challenge of limited observations in non-cooperative multi-agent systems where agents can have partial access to other agents' actions. We present the gene…

Strategizing against Q-learners: A Control-theoretical Approach

Yuksel Arslantas, Ege Yuceel, Muhammed O. Sayin

In this paper, we explore the susceptibility of the independent Q-learning algorithms (a classical and widely used multi-agent reinforcement learning method) to strategic manipulat…

Team-Fictitious Play for Reaching Team-Nash Equilibrium in Multi-team Games

Ahmed Said Donmez, Yuksel Arslantas, Muhammed O. Sayin

Multi-team games, prevalent in robotics and resource management, involve team members striving for a joint best response against other teams. Team-Nash equilibrium (TNE) predicts t…
