Learning Fuzzy Classifier Systems for Multi-Agent Coordination

We present ELF, a learning fuzzy classi®er system (LFCS), and its application to the ®eld of Learning Autonomous Agents. In particular, we will show how this kind of Reinforcement Learning systems can be successfully applied to learn both behaviors and their coordination for Autonomous Agents. We will discuss the importance of knowl- edge representation approach based on fuzzy sets to reduce the search space without losing the required precision. Moreover, we will show how we have applied ELF to learn the distributed coordination among agents which can exchange information with each other. The experimental validation has been done on software agents interacting in a real-time task.
