What is recorded here?
Uses a centralized action-value critic and decentralized actors, marginalizing each agent's action while holding teammates' actions fixed to construct a counterfactual credit-assignment baseline.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
The baseline is computed from a learned critic, not an exact causal simulator; finite StarCraft micromanagement results do not establish general optimality. Printed Jakob N. Foerster is retained; first two authors are marked equal contributors.
