Abstract: Reinforcement Learning comprises an attractive solution to the problem of coordinating a group of agents in a Multiagent System, due to its robustness for learning in uncertain and unknown environments. This paper proposes a multiagent Reinforcement Learning approach, that uses coordinated actions, which we call strategies and a fusing process to guide the agents. To evaluate the proposed approach, we conduct experiments in the Predator-Prey domain and compare it with other learning techniques. The results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.
