Optimistic Hedge algorithm shows exponential regret in 3+ player games

A new paper introduces the Optimistic Hedge algorithm for general-sum games, analyzing its regret bounds. Researchers found that in two-player games, Optimistic Hedge can achieve $O(n\log n)$ regret independent of the horizon. However, for three or more players, no such constant regret bound is possible, with regret potentially growing exponentially with the number of actions and linearly with the horizon. AI

IMPACT Theoretical findings on regret bounds in multi-player games could inform future AI agent design and multi-agent reinforcement learning strategies.
