Teams of agents may not always be developed in a planned, coordinated fashion. Rather, as deployed agents become more common in e-commerce and other settings, there are increasing opportunities for previously unacquainted agents to cooperate in ad hoc team settings. In such scenarios, it is useful for individual agents to be able to collaborate with a wide variety of possible teammates under the philosophy that not all agents are fully rational. This paper considers an agent that is to interact repeatedly with a teammate that will adapt to this interaction in a particular suboptimal, but natural way. We formalize this setting in game-theoretic terms, provide and analyze a fully-implemented algorithm for finding optimal action sequences, prove some theoretical results pertaining to the lengths of these action sequences, and provide empirical results pertaining to the prevalence of our problem of interest in random interaction settings.

abstract={Teams of agents may not always be developed in a
planned, coordinated fashion. Rather, as deployed
agents become more common in e-commerce and other
settings, there are increasing opportunities for
previously unacquainted agents to cooperate in ad
hoc team settings. In such scenarios, it is useful
for individual agents to be able to collaborate with
a wide variety of possible teammates under the
philosophy that not all agents are fully rational.
This paper considers an agent that is to interact
repeatedly with a teammate that will adapt to this
interaction in a particular suboptimal, but natural
way. We formalize this setting in game-theoretic
terms, provide and analyze a fully-implemented
algorithm for finding optimal action sequences,
prove some theoretical results pertaining to the
lengths of these action sequences, and provide
empirical results pertaining to the prevalence of
our problem of interest in random interaction
