Reinforcement Learning is a popular research area. This is mainly because it aims to model systems that otherwise seem intractable. From the famous Atari paper by Deepmind, we have come far. An interesting avenue of study in reinforcement learning is that of communicating agents: a setup where agents can send messages to each other in order to cooperate. A good case where communication will be essential is that of an environment that is only partially observable to each agent, whereas more information is required for the agents to complete the task cooperatively.
