A desirable goal for autonomous agents is to be able to coordinate on the fly with previously
unknown teammates. Known as “ad hoc teamwork”, enabling such a capability has been …

In ad hoc teamwork, multiple agents need to collaborate without having knowledge about
their teammates or their plans a priori. A common assumption in this research area is that …

Ad hoc teamwork exists when a team of agents needs to cooperate without being able to
communicate or use coordination schemes that were designed a-priori. Sometimes ad hoc …

Ad hoc teamwork refers to the challenge of designing agents that can influence the behavior
of a team, without prior coordination with its teammates. This paper considers influencing a …

The growing use of autonomous agents in practice may require agents to cooperate as a
team in situations where they have limited prior knowledge about one another, cannot …

We propose a novel online planning algorithm for ad hoc team settings' challenging
situations in which an agent must collaborate with unknown teammates without prior …

The concept of creating autonomous agents capable of exhibiting ad hoc teamwork was
recently introduced as a challenge to the AI, and specifically to the multiagent systems …

In multiagent team settings, the agents are often given a protocol for coordinating their
actions. When such a protocol is not available, agents must engage in ad hoc teamwork to …

In the ad hoc teamwork setting, a team of agents needs to perform a task without prior
coordination. The most advanced approach learns policies based on previous experiences …

Ad hoc teamwork is the research problem of designing agents that can collaborate with new
teammates without prior coordination. This survey makes a two-fold contribution: First, it …
