Inference-Time Policy Alignment for Fair Reinforcement Learning

Umer Siddique, Peilang Li, Conor Wallace +1

Deep reinforcement learning (RL) agents achieve strong performance by optimizing scalar reward functions. However, once deployed, the policies of these RL agents are often rigid an…

Learning Fair Pareto-Optimal Policies in Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning

Umer Siddique, Peilang Li, Yongcan Cao

Fairness is an important aspect of decision-making in multi-objective reinforcement learning (MORL), where policies must ensure both optimality and equity across multiple, potentia…

ReCollab: Retrieval-Augmented LLMs for Cooperative Ad-hoc Teammate Modeling

Conor Wallace, Umer Siddique, Yongcan Cao

Ad-hoc teamwork (AHT) requires agents to infer the behavior of previously unseen teammates and adapt their policy accordingly. Conventional approaches often rely on fixed probabili…

Adaptive Event-Triggered Policy Gradient for Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Umer Siddique, Abhinav Sinha, Yongcan Cao

Conventional multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) methods rely on time-triggered execution, where agents sample and communicate actions at fixed intervals. This approach is of…

TransAM: Transformer-Based Agent Modeling for Multi-Agent Systems via Local Trajectory Encoding

Conor Wallace, Umer Siddique, Yongcan Cao

Agent modeling is a critical component in developing effective policies within multi-agent systems, as it enables agents to form beliefs about the behaviors, intentions, and compet…

From Explainability to Interpretability: Interpretable Policies in Reinforcement Learning Via Model Explanation

Peilang Li, Umer Siddique, Yongcan Cao

Deep reinforcement learning (RL) has shown remarkable success in complex domains, however, the inherent black box nature of deep neural network policies raises significant challeng…
