Boulder Data Science, Machine Learning & AI

This meeting will cover the first two sections of Chapter 6 in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning: Foundations and Modern Approaches. The algorithms in this chapter incorporate the concept of equilibrium solutions from game theory into reinforcement learning. We will cover the value iteration algorithm for stochastic games which is an exact solution technique. For cases where we do not have access to the full transition function, we will introduce joint-action learning with game theory which is a q-learning style estimation algorithm. Both algorithms can be applied to different game models, but the most straightforward examples are for two-player zero-sum games where the minimax solution concept can be applied. We will discuss this case with a simple soccer game example and then touch on how other solution concepts might be applied for general sum games with more agents.
