CMU Researchers Explore Expert Guidance and Strategic Deviations in Multi-Agent Imitation Learning

Practical Solutions and Value in AI for Multi-Agent Imitation Learning

Challenges in Multi-Agent Imitation Learning

The challenge of a mediator learning to coordinate a group of strategic agents without knowing their underlying utility functions can be addressed through multi-agent imitation learning (MAIL). It involves identifying the right objective for the learner and developing personalized route recommendations for users.

Current Research Approaches

Current research includes methodologies like single-agent imitation learning, interactive approaches, multi-agent imitation learning, and inverse game theory. These approaches aim to address challenges such as covariate shifts, compounding errors, and learning coordination from demonstrations.

Regret Gap and Value Gap

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have proposed the regret gap as an alternative objective for multi-agent imitation learning in Markov Games. They have investigated the relationship between the value and regret gaps, showing that achieving regret equivalence is more challenging than achieving value equivalence in MAIL. They have developed efficient reductions to minimize the regret gap, providing a robust solution for multi-agent environments.

Practical Applications and Implementations

The value gap, although considered ‘weaker,’ can be a reasonable learning objective in real-world applications. Multi-agent adaptation of single-agent imitation learning algorithms, such as Behavior Cloning (BC) and Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL), can efficiently minimize the value gap. Extensions like Joint Behavior Cloning (J-BC) and Joint Inverse Reinforcement Learning (J-IRL) maintain the same value gap bounds as in the single-agent setting.
