| Popis: | Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) has made substantial strides in addressing the distributed decision-making challenges. However, as multi-agent systems grow in complexity, gaining a comprehensive understanding of their behaviour becomes increasingly challenging. Conventionally, tracking team rewards over time has served as a pragmatic measure to gauge the effectiveness of agents in learning optimal policies. Nevertheless, we argue that relying solely on the empirical returns may obscure crucial insights into agent behaviour. In this paper, we explore the application of explainable AI (XAI) tools to gain profound insights into agent behaviour. We employ these diagnostics tools within the context of Level-Based Foraging and Multi-Robot Warehouse environments and apply them to a diverse array of MARL algorithms. We demonstrate how our diagnostics can enhance the interpretability and explainability of MARL systems, providing a better understanding of agent behaviour.
