Submodular Multi-Agent Policy Learning for Online Distributed Task Allocation in Open Multi-Agent Systems

Jing Liu, Yangyang Yang, Luca Ballotta +3

This paper studies multi-agent reinforcement learning with submodular team utilities for online distributed task allocation. In this setting, each agent selects one action from a l…

Can Competition Outperform Collaboration? The Role of Misbehaving Agents

Luca Ballotta, Giacomo Como, Jeff S. Shamma +1

We investigate a novel approach to resilient distributed optimization with quadratic costs in a multi-agent system prone to unexpected events that make some agents misbehave. In co…

A Reinforcement Learning Approach to Sensing Design in Resource-Constrained Wireless Networked Control Systems

Luca Ballotta, Giovanni Peserico, Francesco Zanini

In this paper, we consider a wireless network of smart sensors (agents) that monitor a dynamical process and send measurements to a base station that performs global monitoring and…

Optimal Network Topology of Multi-Agent Systems subject to Computation and Communication Latency (with proofs)

Luca Ballotta, Mihailo R. Jovanović, Luca Schenato

We study minimum-variance feedback-control design for a networked control system with retarded dynamics, where inter-agent communication is subject to latency. We prove that such a…
