Resumen

Environmental information plays an important role in deep reinforcement learning (DRL). However, many algorithms do not pay much attention to environmental information. In multi-agent reinforcement learning decision-making, because agents need to make decisions combined with the information of other agents in the environment, this makes the environmental information more important. To prove the importance of environmental information, we added environmental information to the algorithm. We evaluated many algorithms on a challenging set of StarCraft II micromanagement tasks. Compared with the original algorithm, the standard deviation (except for the VDN algorithm) was smaller than that of the original algorithm, which shows that our algorithm has better stability. The average score of our algorithm was higher than that of the original algorithm (except for VDN and COMA), which shows that our work significantly outperforms existing multi-agent RL methods.
