Abstract: Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) is typically framed as a decentralised partially observable Markov decision process (Dec-POMDP), a setting whose hardness stems from two key challenges: partial observability and decentralised coordination. Genuinely solving such tasks requires Dec-POMDP reasoning, where agents use history to infer hidden states and coordinate based on local information. Yet it remains unclear whether popular benchmarks actually demand this reasoning or permit success via simpler strategies. We introduce a diagnostic suite combining statistically grounded performance comparisons and information-theoretic probes to audit the behavioural complexity of baseline policies (IPPO and MAPPO) across 37 scenarios spanning MPE, SMAX, Overcooked, Hanabi, and MaBrax. Our diagnostics reveal that success on these benchmarks rarely requires genuine Dec-POMDP reasoning. Reactive policies match the performance of memory-based agents in over half the scenarios, and emergent coordination frequently relies on brittle, synchronous action coupling rather than robust temporal influence. These findings suggest that some widely used benchmarks may not adequately test core Dec-POMDP assumptions under current training paradigms, potentially leading to over-optimistic assessments of progress. We release our diagnostic tooling to support more rigorous environment design and evaluation in cooperative MARL.

»Quantel Paintbox« hat ab Anfang der 1980er Grafik und Animation im Fernsehen digitalisiert und massive Änderungen in der bis dahin üblichen Arbeitsweise gebracht. Und trotz des Preises für Hard- und Software die Herstellungskosten von Animationen im TV vermutlich deutlich gesenkt. In einem Werbevideo von 1983 kann man einen Eindruck gewinnen, was mit der Software möglich war, enjoy: …

“How can one mutation cause such different effects?”
Pera explained. “It comes down to genetic background.
Each strain has a unique genetic makeup that can either protect against or magnify the impact of that mutation.”
To confirm these findings in living organisms, Pera introduced the same mutations into live mice from the same eight strains.
Remarkably, the neurons in the brains of these mice phenotypically matched what he had seen in the petri dish,
