We present an approximation method that solves a class of Decentralized hybrid Markov Decision Processes (DEC-HMDPs). These DEC-HMDPs have both discrete and continuous state variab...
Many problems in AI and multi-agent systems research are most naturally formulated in terms of the abilities of a coalition of agents. There exist several excellent logical tools ...
