چکیده

In this paper, we propose Q-learning with adaptive state segmentation (QLASS). QLASS provides an e cient method to construct state space suitable for Q-learning to accomplish the task in a continuous sensor space. In QLASS, the robot starts with single state covering whole sensor space. The sensor space is segmented incrementally based on sensor vectors and reinforcement signals. The segmented sub-space of sensor space is registered as a new state. Experimental results show that QLASS can segment the sensor space e ectively to accomplish the task. Further, acquired state space reveals the tness landscape in a Voronoi tessellation.

Reachability checking in complex and concurrent software systems using intelligent search methods

Software system verification is an efficient technique for ensuring the correctness of a software product, especially in safety-critical systems in which a small bug may have disastrous consequences. The goal of software verification is to ensure that the product fulfills the requirements. Studies show that the cost of finding and fixing errors in design time is less than finding and fixing the...

Hierarchical Functional Concepts for Knowledge Transfer among Reinforcement Learning Agents

This article introduces the notions of functional space and concept as a way of knowledge representation and abstraction for Reinforcement Learning agents. These definitions are used as a tool of knowledge transfer among agents. The agents are assumed to be heterogeneous; they have different state spaces but share a same dynamic, reward and action space. In other words, the agents are assumed t...
