Reduction of decentralized control problems to tractable representations
For decentralized control problems with quadratically invariant information constraints, the optimal controller may be found efficiently. In this paper, we show that there are sys...

A poset framework to model decentralized control problems
— In this paper we use partially ordered sets (posets) to study decentralized control problems arising in different settings. We show that time delayed systems with certain dela...

Offline Planning for Communication by Exploiting Structured Interactions in Decentralized MDPs
Variants of the decentralized MDP model focus on problems exhibiting some special structure that makes them easier to solve in practice. Our work is concerned with two main issues...

Communication-Based Decomposition Mechanisms for Decentralized MDPs
Multi-agent planning in stochastic environments can be framed formally as a decentralized Markov decision problem. Many real-life distributed problems that arise in manufacturing,...

Optimizing fixed-size stochastic controllers for POMDPs and decentralized POMDPs
POMDPs and their decentralized multiagent counterparts, DEC-POMDPs, offer a rich framework for sequential decision making under uncertainty. Their computational complexity, howeve...
