New framework tackles hidden Byzantine attacks in multi-agent systems

Researchers have developed a new theoretical framework and algorithm for online security learning in cooperative multi-agent systems facing hidden Byzantine attacks. The study identifies that an attacker's information access, whether observing planned actions or acting blindly, dictates the system's model complexity. The work establishes an information-theoretic limit for security learning, demonstrating that unavoidable regret is tied to a cumulative response gap, even when direct return regret is zero. An algorithm is proposed with a proven regret bound, offering a foundation for reliable multi-agent systems under such adversarial conditions. AI

    Online Security Learning in Cooperative Multi-Agent Systems under Hidden Byzantine Attacks

    arXiv:2608.06520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study online cooperative control of a multi-agent system under Byzantine attacks. Namely, an unknown, fixed subset of agents are Byzantine comprised and can stealthily overwrite its own coordinates of the team's planned joint act…
