Constrained Environment Optimization for Prioritized Multi-Agent Navigation
The goal of this paper is to consider the environment as a decision variable in a system-level optimization problem, where both agent performance and environment cost are incorporated.
System Neural Diversity: Measuring Behavioral Heterogeneity in Multi-Agent Learning
When a system of learning agents is not constrained to homogeneous policies, individual agents may develop diverse behaviors, resulting in emergent complementarity that benefits the system.
Learning Environment-Aware Control Barrier Functions for Safe and Feasible Multi-Robot Navigation
Such approaches are inefficient and vulnerable to changes in the environment.
POPGym: Benchmarking Partially Observable Reinforcement Learning
Real world applications of Reinforcement Learning (RL) are often partially observable, thus requiring memory.
Permutation-Invariant Set Autoencoders with Fixed-Size Embeddings for Multi-Agent Learning
The problem of permutation-invariant learning over set representations is particularly relevant in the field of multi-agent systems -- a few potential applications include unsupervised training of aggregation functions in graph neural networks (GNNs), neural cellular automata on graphs, and prediction of scenes with multiple objects.
Accelerating Multi-Agent Planning Using Graph Transformers with Bounded Suboptimality
Though it is complete and optimal, it does not scale well.
Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Reinforcement Learning
Through simulations and real-world experiments, we show that: (i) when homogeneous methods fail due to strong heterogeneous requirements, HetGPPO succeeds, and, (ii) when homogeneous methods are able to learn apparently heterogeneous behaviors, HetGPPO achieves higher resilience to both training and deployment noise.

Decentralized Channel Management in WLANs with Graph Neural Networks
Wireless local area networks (WLANs) manage multiple access points (APs) and assign scarce radio frequency resources to APs for satisfying traffic demands of associated user devices.
Environment Optimization for Multi-Agent Navigation
Traditional approaches to the design of multi-agent navigation algorithms consider the environment as a fixed constraint, despite the obvious influence of spatial constraints on agents' performance.
See What the Robot Can't See: Learning Cooperative Perception for Visual Navigation
We consider the problem of navigating a mobile robot towards a target in an unknown environment that is endowed with visual sensors, where neither the robot nor the sensors have access to global positioning information and only use first-person-view images.
VMAS: A Vectorized Multi-Agent Simulator for Collective Robot Learning
VMAS's scenarios prove challenging in orthogonal ways for state-of-the-art MARL algorithms.

Beyond Robustness: A Taxonomy of Approaches towards Resilient Multi-Robot Systems
In this survey article, we analyze how resilience is achieved in networks of agents and multi-robot systems that are able to overcome adversity by leveraging system-wide complementarity, diversity, and redundancy - often involving a reconfiguration of robotic capabilities to provide some key ability that was not present in the system a priori.

The Emergence of Adversarial Communication in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Such a design choice, however, precludes the existence of a single, differentiable communication channel, and consequently prohibits the learning of inter-agent communication strategies.
