Optimal and Scalable MAPF via Multi-Marginal Optimal Transport and Schrödinger Bridges

We consider anonymous multi-agent path finding (MAPF) where a set of robots is tasked to travel to a set of targets on a finite, connected graph. We show that MAPF can be cast as a special class of multi-marginal optimal transport (MMOT) problems with an underlying Markovian structure, under which t…
