An approximate dual subgradient algorithm for multi-agent non-convex optimization
We consider a multi-agent optimization problem where agents aim to cooperatively minimize a sum of local objective functions subject to a global inequality constraint and a global ...

Integrating organizational control into multi-agent learning
Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) algorithms suffer from slow convergence and even divergence, especially in largescale systems. In this work, we develop an organization-b...
