The proposed method tackles two crucial problems in intelligent warehouse management: multi-agent target assignment and path planning. By leveraging cooperative multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (RL), the study simultaneously solves these problems, a novel approach that considers the physical dynamics of agents. The experiment demonstrates the effectiveness of the method in various task settings, achieving reasonable target assignment and nearly shortest planned paths. In comparison to baselines, the proposed method exhibits improved time efficiency.

In intelligent warehouses, robots need to work together to assign targets and plan paths efficiently. A new approach uses deep learning to solve both problems at once. This helps robots move around obstacles and get to their targets quickly. The study shows that this method works well in different scenarios and is faster than previous methods.
