چکیده

We present a novel methodology for regression trees generation that uses the reinforcement learning frame for learning efficient regression trees. We describe the basic variant of such a methodology that uses the Monte-Carlo method to explore the space of possible regression trees. Comparison with other methods of regression is performed and evaluated. Our algorithm is implemented as a software program in the JAVA programming language and uses the framework of WEKA machine learning library. This work can be seen as a step toward on-line learning methodology for generation of decision and regression trees on drifting concepts.

Using Reinforcement Learning to Make Smart Energy Storage Source in Microgrid

The use of renewable energy in power generation and sudden changes in load and fault in power transmission lines  may cause a voltage drop in the system and challenge the reliability of the system. One way to compensate the changing nature of renewable energies in the short term without the need to disconnect loads or turn on other plants, is the use of renewable energy storage. The use of ener...

E cient Value Function Approximation Using Regression Trees

Value function approximation is a problem central to reinforcement learning. Many applications of reinforcement learning have relied on neural network function approximators, which are very slow to train and require substantial parameter tweaking to obtain good performance. Other reinforcement learning studies have applied nearest neighbor and CMAC function ap-proximators, but these cannot scal...

Tree-Based Batch Mode Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning aims to determine an optimal control policy from interaction with a system or from observations gathered from a system. In batch mode, it can be achieved by approximating the so-called Q-function based on a set of four-tuples (xt ,ut ,rt ,xt+1) where xt denotes the system state at time t, ut the control action taken, rt the instantaneous reward obtained and xt+1 the succe...

Convergence of reinforcement learning using a decision tree learner

In this paper, we propose conditions under which Q iteration using decision trees for function approximation is guaranteed to converge to the optimal policy in the limit, using only a storage space linear in the size of the decision tree. We analyze different factors that influence the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, and in particular study the efficiency of different concept languages. W...
