Decentralized Safe Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning via Predictive Shielding
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.07618v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Environments are increasingly populated by multiple robots performing independent tasks with limited prior knowledge of each other. Deploying such multi-agent systems presents significant challenges. Specifically, shifts in deployment states compared to training data can lead to poor policy performance and compromised safety. While safety shields exist to mitigate these risks, they are typically reactive, which degrades performance near unseen obstacles,and centralized, limiting their scalability. To address this, we propose a decentralized fra
