Unveiling Complex Collective Behaviors from Simple Rewards

Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) holds great potential for robot swarms, but the black-box nature of neural policies complicates strategic analysis, limiting multi-robot applications. Furthermore, complex swarm behaviors can surprisingly emerge from simple rewards without explicit aggregation incentives. Unveiling the mechanisms behind this emergence is critical, but the disconnection between simple rewards and collective behaviors exacerbates interpretability challenges. This paper aims to reveal the hidden mechanisms in this process. We propose a two-stage EEC (\LinkIII) explanatory
