Abstract
In the dynamic vehicular metaverse, delivering a seamless user experience (UX) and effective human-machine interaction (HMI) is challenging due to vehicle mobility and varying resource needs. This paper introduces an adaptive resource allocation and twin migration framework using Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning (MADRL) for a multi-tier vehicular metaverse. The framework enables cooperative agents to dynamically allocate resources and migrate vehicle twins across vehicle, edge, and cloud layers, ensuring seamless UX and efficient HMI. The joint resource allocation and twin migration optimization problem is modeled as MDP and a hierarchical multi-agent deep deterministic policy gradient-with QMIX (MADDPG-Q) strategy is adopted to solve it, reducing latency and optimizing resource use. Moreover, the proposed framework is designed to be context-aware, adjusting HMI based on real-time conditions, and enhancing interaction quality. Simulation results show significant improvements in UX, latency reduction, and resource efficiency.
