Causal Coordinated Concurrent Reinforcement Learning

In this work, we propose a novel algorithmic framework for data sharing and coordinated exploration for the purpose of learning more data-efficient and better performing policies under a concurrent reinforcement learning (CRL) setting. In contrast to other work which make the assumption that all agents act under identical environments, we relax this restriction and instead consider the formulation where each agent acts within an environment which shares a global structure but also exhibits individual variations. Our algorithm leverages a causal …
