Sequential Bundle-Bid Single-Sale Auction Algorithms for Decentralized Control
We study auction-like algorithms for the distributed allocation of tasks to cooperating agents. To reduce the team cost of sequential single-item auction algorithms, we generalize...

Learning to Cooperate via Policy Search
Cooperative games are those in which both agents share the same payoff structure. Valuebased reinforcement-learning algorithms, such as variants of Q-learning, have been applied t...
