Learning to Communicate with Strangers via Channel Randomisation Methods

We introduce two methods for improving the performance of agents meeting for the first time to accomplish a communicative task. The methods are: (1) message mutation' during the generation of the communication protocol; and (2) random permutations of the communication channel. These proposals are tested using a simple two-player game involving a teacher' who generates a communication protocol and sends a message, and a `student' who interprets the message. After training multiple agents via self-play we analyse the performance of these agents when they are matched with a stranger, i.e. their zero-shot communication performance. We find that both message mutation and channel permutation positively influence performance, and we discuss their effects.
