چکیده
This paper proposes an algorithm for combinatorial optimizations that uses reinforcement learning and estimation of joint probability distribution of promising solutions to generate a new population of solutions. We call it Reinforcement Learning Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (RELEDA). For the estimation of the joint probability distribution we consider each variable as univariate. Then we update the probability of each variable by applying reinforcement learning method. Though we consider variables independent of one another, the proposed method can solve problems of highly correlated variables. To compare the efficiency of our proposed algorithm with other Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) we provide the experimental results of the two problems: four peaks problem and bipolar function.

متن کاملBayesian Models of Nonstationary Markov Decision Processes
Standard reinforcement learning algorithms generate polices that optimize expected future rewards in a priori unknown domains, but they assume that the domain does not change over time. Prior work cast the reinforcement learning problem as a Bayesian estimation problem, using experience data to condition a probability distribution over domains. In this paper we propose an elaboration of the typ...
متن کاملWeb pages ranking algorithm based on reinforcement learning and user feedback
The main challenge of a search engine is ranking web documents to provide the best response to a user`s query. Despite the huge number of the extracted results for user`s query, only a small number of the first results are examined by users; therefore, the insertion of the related results in the first ranks is of great importance. In this paper, a ranking algorithm based on the reinforcement le...
