Query: Lenient Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning   Much of the success of single agent deep reinforcement learning (DRL) in
recent years can be attributed to the use of experience replay memories (ERM),
which allow Deep Q-Networks (DQNs) to be trained efficiently through sampling
stored state transitions. However, care is required when using ERMs for
multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (MA-DRL), as stored transitions can
become outdated because agents update their policies in parallel [11]. In this
work we apply leniency [23] to MA-DRL. Lenient agents map state-action pairs to
decaying temperature values that control the amount of leniency applied towards
negative policy updates that are sampled from the ERM. This introduces optimism
in the value-function update, and has been shown to facilitate cooperation in
tabular fully-cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning problems. We
evaluate our Lenient-DQN (LDQN) empirically against the related Hysteretic-DQN
(HDQN) algorithm [22] as well as a modified version we call scheduled-HDQN,
that uses average reward learning near terminal states. Evaluations take place
in extended variations of the Coordinated Multi-Agent Object Transportation
Problem (CMOTP) [8] which include fully-cooperative sub-tasks and stochastic
rewards. We find that LDQN agents are more likely to converge to the optimal
policy in a stochastic reward CMOTP compared to standard and scheduled-HDQN
agents.
