Abstract :
This paper presents a LR-I lagging anchor algorithm that combines a lagging anchor method to the LR-I learning algorithm. We prove that this decentralized learning algorithm converges in strategies to a Nash equilibrium in two-player, zero-sum, two-action matrix games, while only needing knowledge of their own action and reward.
