The field of autonomous systems and multi-agent reinforcement learning is moving towards increased integration of human expertise and safety guarantees. Recent developments have focused on enhancing model performance and adaptability through human-in-the-loop approaches, as well as ensuring safe and efficient decision-making in complex scenarios. Noteworthy papers in this area include:
- Interactive Double Deep Q-network, which introduces a novel approach to integrating human insights into reinforcement learning training processes.
- Resolving Conflicting Constraints in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning with Layered Safety, which proposes a method for safe multi-agent coordination by combining MARL with safety filters. These advances have significant implications for the development of autonomous vehicles, air traffic control, and other safety-critical applications.
