... systems; developing a new MARL formulation for joint pricing-inventory optimization under partial observability; and advancing CTDE techniques for supply chain applications. Therefore, this work lies at the intersection of Agent-Based Modeling and RL, where Agentic Automation has become increasingly...

... adopts a single-period inventory optimization framework to compare deterministic and randomized policies under various demand distributions, including unimodal, bimodal and multimodal settings. Analytical intuitions are developed to explain when and why randomized policies yield lower expected inventory...
