Heterogeneous Agent Collaborative Reinforcement Learning

We introduce Heterogeneous Agent Collaborative Reinforcement Learning (HACRL), a new Reinforcement Learning from Verifiable Reward (RLVR) problem that addresses the inefficiencies of isolated multi-agent on-policy optimization. HACRL enables collaborative optimization with independent execution: heterogeneous agents share verified rollouts during training to mutually improve, while operating independently at inference time. Unlike LLM-based multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), HACRL does n
