Plan wisely.

This looks like a paper worth diving in

"We __prove__ that GNNs, trained to minimize a sparsity-regularized loss over a small set of shortest path instances, exactly implement the Bellman-Ford (BF) algorithm for shortest paths."

What if some agents are slower/faster, how would the reservation table look like?
You discretize time based on their relative speed.
Imagine agent 1 4x as fast as agent 2. The shared table has cells of unit 1. Agent 1 table has cells of unit 2 and Agent 2 table cells of unit 0.5...

The idea is explained in this figure.
Agents reserve their shortest path in sequence, and a new Space-Time A* approach is used to find the shortest non-reserved path.

The idea is very simple, and you "see" the algorithm by looking at this figure

Why only mention new papers when posting?

Here's CBS, cited *check notes* 1521 times as of today.

"Conflict-based search for optimal multi-agent pathfinding"

And they use POGEMA, beautiful.

This figure describes simply the approach taken. Look at the map, predict an action per agent found on the grid, train on SOTA solvers (LaCAM-v1 in that case).

New paper for the day

"RAILGUN: A Unified Convolutional Policy for Multi-Agent Path Finding Across Different Environments and Tasks"

Interesting part is: "RAILGUN is not an agent-based policy but a map-based policy."

You can find it (open access!) here: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/105...

It is structured into ML for each of Environment Representation, Solution Planning, and Plan Execution.

Let's see if posting here about Multi-Agent Systems would get more interactions than Twitter. Starting with a review paper I wrote together with Keisuke Okumura

"A Comprehensive Review on Leveraging Machine Learning for Mutli-Agent Path Finding", published in IEEE Access.

Way better than expected 🤔
