Learning Multi-agent Action Coordination via Electing First-move Agent

1. Environments supported:

• Multiagent Particle-World Environments (MPEs)
• Google Research Football

2. Installation

2.1 create conda environment

conda create -n marl python==3.6.1
conda activate marl
pip install torch==1.5.1+cu101 torchvision==0.6.1+cu101 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

2.2 create football environment

• Please refer to Google Research Football

3. Training

1. we use training Cooperative Navigation as an example:

cd CooperativeNavigation
python train.py

2. we use training Google Football as an example:

# 3vs1 scenario
cd GoogleFootball/3vs1
python train.py

# 2vs6 scenario
cd GoogleFootball/2vs6
python train.py

4. Empirical Results

• Section 4.1: The comparison with VDN, QMIX, Weighted QMIX, COMA, CommNet and G2ANet on Cooperative Navigation.
• Section 4.2: The comparison with VDN, QMIX, Weighted QMIX, COMA, CommNet and G2ANet on Google Football.
• Section 4.3: The comparison LOLA (2 agents).
• Section 4.4: The comparison with BiAC (2 agents).
• Section 4.5: The importance of optimally electing the leader

4.1. The final results on Cooperative Navigation

4.2. The final results on Google Football

4.3. The comparison with LOLA

Tips:

• Our reproduce for LOLA is available at this repo : AC_LOLA
• LOLA has an elegant theory guarantee of 2 agents in a general-sum game but no such guarantee with more than 2 agents. Due to the limitation of LOLA, we only test the LOLA with 2 agents.
• In the future, we can investigate the gradient effects (average gradients from other agents or gradient effects between pairs) of multiple agents (more than 2).

4.4. The comparison with BiAC

• 2 agents on the Cooperative Navigation and Google Football

4.5. The importance of optimally electing the leader

• The emperical results about 2 agents and 5 agents on the Cooperative Navigation
