  "summary": "Decentralised partially observable Markov decision processes (DecPOMDPs) provide a general framework for modelling multi-agent decision making under uncertainty. However, DecPOMDPs are known to suffer from exponential complexity in the number of agents. One way to combat this intractability in agent numbers is to look at partitions of agents that exhibit a form of symmetry among agents, allowing…",
