چکیده

Recent work on multi-objectivization has shown how a single-objective reinforcement learning problem can be turned into a multi-objective problem with correlated objectives, by providing multiple reward shaping functions. The information contained in these correlated objectives can be exploited to solve the base, singleobjective problem faster and better, given techniques specifically aimed at handling such correlated objectives. In this paper, we identify ensemble techniques as a set of methods that is suitable to solve multi-objectivized reinforcement learning problems. We empirically demonstrate their use on the Pursuit domain.

Multi-objectivization and ensembles of shapings in reinforcement learning

Ensemble techniques are a powerful approach to creating better decision makers in machine learning. Multiple decision makers are trained to solve a given task, grouped in an ensemble, and their decisions are aggregated. The ensemble derives its power from the diversity of its components, as the assumption is that they make mistakes on different inputs, and that the majority is more likely to be...

Multi-Objectivization in Reinforcement Learning

Multi-objectivization is the process of transforming a single objective problem into a multi-objective problem. Research in evolutionary optimization has demonstrated that the addition of objectives that are correlated with the original objective can make the resulting problem easier to solve compared to the original single-objective problem. In this paper we investigate the multi-objectivizati...

Machine learning algorithms in air quality modeling

Modern studies in the field of environment science and engineering show that deterministic models struggle to capture the relationship between the concentration of atmospheric pollutants and their emission sources. The recent advances in statistical modeling based on machine learning approaches have emerged as solution to tackle these issues. It is a fact that, input variable type largely affec...
