Asymptotic Extinction in Large Coordination Games

(with Desmond Chan, Bart De Keijzer, Stefanos Leonardos, Carmine Ventre)

We show that, for large random coordination games, Q-Learning converges to a Quantal Response Equilibria near the >>>
Asymptotic Extinction in Large Coordination Games
We study the exploration-exploitation trade-off for large multiplayer coordination games where players strategise via Q-Learning, a common learning framework in multi-agent reinforcement learning. Q-L...
