Multiagent reinforcement learning: Spiking and nonspiking agents in the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma
(2011)This paper investigates multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) in a general-sum game where the payoffs' structure is such that the agents are required to exploit each other in a way that benefits all agents. The contradictory ...
