HySTAR: Anchored Hypergraphs for Stable Credit Assignment in Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.31531v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning under partial observability and shared rewards requires assigning team outcomes to individual agents and high-order coalitions. A MAPPO-style critic compresses joint behavior into one global value, while critics that dynamically reconstruct the grouping topology change the mapping from agents and coalitions to value components as interactions or active agents evolve. We refer to this inconsistency as structural target drift. We introduce HySTAR, a MAPPO-based framework that separates adaptive representation learning from a temporally consistent high-order value-decomposition basis. HySTAR anchors an overlapping sparse hypergraph as a uniformly covered decomposition scaffold, uses a spatiotemporal
