深度强化学习中的一个开放研究问题是如何将稀疏领域中关键决策的政策学习重点。本文强调将“隐藏的马尔可夫模型”和“强化学习”的优势结合在一起，以朝着可解释的维护决策中。我们提出了一种新型的层次建模方法，该方法在高水平上检测并解释了失败的根本原因以及涡轮扇叶引擎的健康降解，而在低水平上，它提供了最佳的替换政策。它的表现优于直接应用于原始数据或使用隐藏的马尔可夫模型而没有这样的专业层次结构时，深入强化学习方法的基线性能。但是，它还提供了与先前的工作相当的绩效，并具有可解释性的额外好处。

具有成本效益的资产管理是多个行业的兴趣领域。具体而言，本文开发了深入的加固学习（DRL）解决方案，以自动确定不断恶化的水管的最佳康复政策。我们在在线和离线DRL设置中处理康复计划的问题。在在线DRL中，代理与具有不同长度，材料和故障率特征的多个管道的模拟环境进行交互。我们使用深Q学习（DQN）训练代理商，以最低限度的平均成本和减少故障概率学习最佳政策。在离线学习中，代理使用静态数据，例如DQN重播数据，通过保守的Q学习算法学习最佳策略，而无需与环境进行进一步的交互。我们证明，基于DRL的政策改善了标准预防，纠正和贪婪的计划替代方案。此外，从固定的DQN重播数据集中学习超过在线DQN设置。结果保证，由大型国家和行动轨迹组成的水管的现有恶化概况为在离线环境中学习康复政策提供了宝贵的途径，而无需模拟器。

实验数据的获取成本很高，这使得很难校准复杂模型。对于许多型号而言，鉴于有限的实验预算，可以产生最佳校准的实验设计并不明显。本文介绍了用于设计实验的深钢筋学习（RL）算法，该算法通过Kalman Filter（KF）获得的Kullback-Leibler（KL）差异测量的信息增益最大化。这种组合实现了传统方法太昂贵的快速在线实验的实验设计。我们将实验的可能配置作为决策树和马尔可夫决策过程（MDP），其中每个增量步骤都有有限的操作选择。一旦采取了动作，就会使用各种测量来更新实验状态。该新数据导致KF对参数进行贝叶斯更新，该参数用于增强状态表示。与NASH-SUTCLIFFE效率（NSE）指数相反，该指数需要额外的抽样来检验前进预测的假设，KF可以通过直接估计通过其他操作获得的新数据值来降低实验的成本。在这项工作中，我们的应用集中在材料的机械测试上。使用复杂的历史依赖模型的数值实验用于验证RL设计实验的性能并基准测试实现。

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a popular machine learning paradigm where intelligent agents interact with the environment to fulfill a long-term goal. Driven by the resurgence of deep learning, Deep RL (DRL) has witnessed great success over a wide spectrum of complex control tasks. Despite the encouraging results achieved, the deep neural network-based backbone is widely deemed as a black box that impedes practitioners to trust and employ trained agents in realistic scenarios where high security and reliability are essential. To alleviate this issue, a large volume of literature devoted to shedding light on the inner workings of the intelligent agents has been proposed, by constructing intrinsic interpretability or post-hoc explainability. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive review of existing works on eXplainable RL (XRL) and introduce a new taxonomy where prior works are clearly categorized into model-explaining, reward-explaining, state-explaining, and task-explaining methods. We also review and highlight RL methods that conversely leverage human knowledge to promote learning efficiency and performance of agents while this kind of method is often ignored in XRL field. Some challenges and opportunities in XRL are discussed. This survey intends to provide a high-level summarization of XRL and to motivate future research on more effective XRL solutions. Corresponding open source codes are collected and categorized at https://github.com/Plankson/awesome-explainable-reinforcement-learning.

With the development of deep representation learning, the domain of reinforcement learning (RL) has become a powerful learning framework now capable of learning complex policies in high dimensional environments. This review summarises deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms and provides a taxonomy of automated driving tasks where (D)RL methods have been employed, while addressing key computational challenges in real world deployment of autonomous driving agents. It also delineates adjacent domains such as behavior cloning, imitation learning, inverse reinforcement learning that are related but are not classical RL algorithms. The role of simulators in training agents, methods to validate, test and robustify existing solutions in RL are discussed.

从意外的外部扰动中恢复的能力是双模型运动的基本机动技能。有效的答复包括不仅可以恢复平衡并保持稳定性的能力，而且在平衡恢复物质不可行时，也可以保证安全的方式。对于与双式运动有关的机器人，例如人形机器人和辅助机器人设备，可帮助人类行走，设计能够提供这种稳定性和安全性的控制器可以防止机器人损坏或防止伤害相关的医疗费用。这是一个具有挑战性的任务，因为它涉及用触点产生高维，非线性和致动系统的高动态运动。尽管使用基于模型和优化方法的前进方面，但诸如广泛领域知识的要求，诸如较大的计算时间和有限的动态变化的鲁棒性仍然会使这个打开问题。在本文中，为了解决这些问题，我们开发基于学习的算法，能够为两种不同的机器人合成推送恢复控制政策：人形机器人和有助于双模型运动的辅助机器人设备。我们的工作可以分为两个密切相关的指示：1）学习人形机器人的安全下降和预防策略，2）使用机器人辅助装置学习人类的预防策略。为实现这一目标，我们介绍了一套深度加强学习（DRL）算法，以学习使用这些机器人时提高安全性的控制策略。

This paper is a technical overview of DeepMind and Google's recent work on reinforcement learning for controlling commercial cooling systems. Building on expertise that began with cooling Google's data centers more efficiently, we recently conducted live experiments on two real-world facilities in partnership with Trane Technologies, a building management system provider. These live experiments had a variety of challenges in areas such as evaluation, learning from offline data, and constraint satisfaction. Our paper describes these challenges in the hope that awareness of them will benefit future applied RL work. We also describe the way we adapted our RL system to deal with these challenges, resulting in energy savings of approximately 9% and 13% respectively at the two live experiment sites.

尽管深度强化学习（RL）最近取得了许多成功，但其方法仍然效率低下，这使得在数据方面解决了昂贵的许多问题。我们的目标是通过利用未标记的数据中的丰富监督信号来进行学习状态表示，以解决这一问题。本文介绍了三种不同的表示算法，可以访问传统RL算法使用的数据源的不同子集使用：（i）GRICA受到独立组件分析（ICA）的启发，并训练深层神经网络以输出统计独立的独立特征。输入。 Grica通过最大程度地减少每个功能与其他功能之间的相互信息来做到这一点。此外，格里卡仅需要未分类的环境状态。 （ii）潜在表示预测（LARP）还需要更多的上下文：除了要求状态作为输入外，它还需要先前的状态和连接它们的动作。该方法通过预测当前状态和行动的环境的下一个状态来学习状态表示。预测器与图形搜索算法一起使用。 （iii）重新培训通过训练深层神经网络来学习国家表示，以学习奖励功能的平滑版本。该表示形式用于预处理输入到深度RL，而奖励预测指标用于奖励成型。此方法仅需要环境中的状态奖励对学习表示表示。我们发现，每种方法都有其优势和缺点，并从我们的实验中得出结论，包括无监督的代表性学习在RL解决问题的管道中可以加快学习的速度。

This paper surveys the eld of reinforcement learning from a computer-science perspective. It is written to be accessible to researchers familiar with machine learning. Both the historical basis of the eld and a broad selection of current work are summarized. Reinforcement learning is the problem faced by an agent that learns behavior through trial-and-error interactions with a dynamic environment. The work described here has a resemblance to work in psychology, but di ers considerably in the details and in the use of the word \reinforcement." The paper discusses central issues of reinforcement learning, including trading o exploration and exploitation, establishing the foundations of the eld via Markov decision theory, learning from delayed reinforcement, constructing empirical models to accelerate learning, making use of generalization and hierarchy, and coping with hidden state. It concludes with a survey of some implemented systems and an assessment of the practical utility of current methods for reinforcement learning.

在现代环境和社会问题的背景下，人们对能够识别土木工程系统的管理策略的方法的需求越来越大，最大程度地降低了结构性故障风险，同时最好计划检查和维护（I＆M）流程。由于与联合系统级状态描述下的全局优化方法相关的计算复杂性，大多数可用方法将I＆M决策问题简化为组件级别。在本文中，我们提出了一个有效的算法框架，用于在暴露于恶化环境的工程系统下进行推理和决策制定，从而直接在系统级别提供最佳的管理策略。在我们的方法中，决策问题被提出为部分可观察到的马尔可夫决策过程，其动态是在贝叶斯网络条件结构中编码的。该方法可以通过高斯层次结构和动态贝叶斯网络在组件之间平等或一般，不平等的恶化相关性下处理环境。在政策优化方面，我们采用了深层分散的多代理参与者 - 批评（DDMAC）强化学习方法，其中政策由批评家网络指导的参与者神经网络近似。通过在模拟环境中包括劣化依赖性，并通过在系统级别制定成本模型，DDMAC策略本质上考虑了基本系统效应。通过对疲劳恶化下的9分和钢架进行的数值实验证明了这一点。结果表明，与最先进的启发式方法相比，DDMAC政策可提供可观的好处。 DDMAC策略对系统效应的固有考虑也可以根据学习的政策来解释。

The high emission and low energy efficiency caused by internal combustion engines (ICE) have become unacceptable under environmental regulations and the energy crisis. As a promising alternative solution, multi-power source electric vehicles (MPS-EVs) introduce different clean energy systems to improve powertrain efficiency. The energy management strategy (EMS) is a critical technology for MPS-EVs to maximize efficiency, fuel economy, and range. Reinforcement learning (RL) has become an effective methodology for the development of EMS. RL has received continuous attention and research, but there is still a lack of systematic analysis of the design elements of RL-based EMS. To this end, this paper presents an in-depth analysis of the current research on RL-based EMS (RL-EMS) and summarizes the design elements of RL-based EMS. This paper first summarizes the previous applications of RL in EMS from five aspects: algorithm, perception scheme, decision scheme, reward function, and innovative training method. The contribution of advanced algorithms to the training effect is shown, the perception and control schemes in the literature are analyzed in detail, different reward function settings are classified, and innovative training methods with their roles are elaborated. Finally, by comparing the development routes of RL and RL-EMS, this paper identifies the gap between advanced RL solutions and existing RL-EMS. Finally, this paper suggests potential development directions for implementing advanced artificial intelligence (AI) solutions in EMS.

Transformer, originally devised for natural language processing, has also attested significant success in computer vision. Thanks to its super expressive power, researchers are investigating ways to deploy transformers to reinforcement learning (RL) and the transformer-based models have manifested their potential in representative RL benchmarks. In this paper, we collect and dissect recent advances on transforming RL by transformer (transformer-based RL or TRL), in order to explore its development trajectory and future trend. We group existing developments in two categories: architecture enhancement and trajectory optimization, and examine the main applications of TRL in robotic manipulation, text-based games, navigation and autonomous driving. For architecture enhancement, these methods consider how to apply the powerful transformer structure to RL problems under the traditional RL framework, which model agents and environments much more precisely than deep RL methods, but they are still limited by the inherent defects of traditional RL algorithms, such as bootstrapping and "deadly triad". For trajectory optimization, these methods treat RL problems as sequence modeling and train a joint state-action model over entire trajectories under the behavior cloning framework, which are able to extract policies from static datasets and fully use the long-sequence modeling capability of the transformer. Given these advancements, extensions and challenges in TRL are reviewed and proposals about future direction are discussed. We hope that this survey can provide a detailed introduction to TRL and motivate future research in this rapidly developing field.

Deep reinforcement learning is poised to revolutionise the field of AI and represents a step towards building autonomous systems with a higher level understanding of the visual world. Currently, deep learning is enabling reinforcement learning to scale to problems that were previously intractable, such as learning to play video games directly from pixels. Deep reinforcement learning algorithms are also applied to robotics, allowing control policies for robots to be learned directly from camera inputs in the real world. In this survey, we begin with an introduction to the general field of reinforcement learning, then progress to the main streams of value-based and policybased methods. Our survey will cover central algorithms in deep reinforcement learning, including the deep Q-network, trust region policy optimisation, and asynchronous advantage actor-critic. In parallel, we highlight the unique advantages of deep neural networks, focusing on visual understanding via reinforcement learning. To conclude, we describe several current areas of research within the field.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) describes a process for inferring quantifiable metrics of structural condition, which can serve as input to support decisions on the operation and maintenance of infrastructure assets. Given the long lifespan of critical structures, this problem can be cast as a sequential decision making problem over prescribed horizons. Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) offer a formal framework to solve the underlying optimal planning task. However, two issues can undermine the POMDP solutions. Firstly, the need for a model that can adequately describe the evolution of the structural condition under deterioration or corrective actions and, secondly, the non-trivial task of recovery of the observation process parameters from available monitoring data. Despite these potential challenges, the adopted POMDP models do not typically account for uncertainty on model parameters, leading to solutions which can be unrealistically confident. In this work, we address both key issues. We present a framework to estimate POMDP transition and observation model parameters directly from available data, via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) conditioned on actions. The MCMC inference estimates distributions of the involved model parameters. We then form and solve the POMDP problem by exploiting the inferred distributions, to derive solutions that are robust to model uncertainty. We successfully apply our approach on maintenance planning for railway track assets on the basis of a "fractal value" indicator, which is computed from actual railway monitoring data.

软件测试活动旨在找到软件产品的可能缺陷，并确保该产品满足其预期要求。一些软件测试接近的方法缺乏自动化或部分自动化，这增加了测试时间和整体软件测试成本。最近，增强学习（RL）已成功地用于复杂的测试任务中，例如游戏测试，回归测试和测试案例优先级，以自动化该过程并提供持续的适应。从业者可以通过从头开始实现RL算法或使用RL框架来使用RL。开发人员已广泛使用这些框架来解决包括软件测试在内的各个领域中的问题。但是，据我们所知，尚无研究从经验上评估RL框架中实用算法的有效性和性能。在本文中，我们凭经验研究了精心选择的RL算法在两个重要的软件测试任务上的应用：在连续集成（CI）和游戏测试的上下文中测试案例的优先级。对于游戏测试任务，我们在简单游戏上进行实验，并使用RL算法探索游戏以检测错误。结果表明，一些选定的RL框架，例如Tensorforce优于文献的最新方法。为了确定测试用例的优先级，我们在CI环境上运行实验，其中使用来自不同框架的RL算法来对测试用例进行排名。我们的结果表明，在某些情况下，预实算算法之间的性能差异很大，激励了进一步的研究。此外，建议对希望选择RL框架的研究人员进行一些基准问题的经验评估，以确保RL算法按预期执行。

Compared with model-based control and optimization methods, reinforcement learning (RL) provides a data-driven, learning-based framework to formulate and solve sequential decision-making problems. The RL framework has become promising due to largely improved data availability and computing power in the aviation industry. Many aviation-based applications can be formulated or treated as sequential decision-making problems. Some of them are offline planning problems, while others need to be solved online and are safety-critical. In this survey paper, we first describe standard RL formulations and solutions. Then we survey the landscape of existing RL-based applications in aviation. Finally, we summarize the paper, identify the technical gaps, and suggest future directions of RL research in aviation.

强化学习（RL）通过与环境相互作用的试验过程解决顺序决策问题。尽管RL在玩复杂的视频游戏方面取得了巨大的成功，但在现实世界中，犯错误总是不希望的。为了提高样本效率并从而降低错误，据信基于模型的增强学习（MBRL）是一个有前途的方向，它建立了环境模型，在该模型中可以进行反复试验，而无需实际成本。在这项调查中，我们对MBRL进行了审查，重点是Deep RL的最新进展。对于非壮观环境，学到的环境模型与真实环境之间始终存在概括性错误。因此，非常重要的是分析环境模型中的政策培训与实际环境中的差异，这反过来又指导了更好的模型学习，模型使用和政策培训的算法设计。此外，我们还讨论了其他形式的RL，包括离线RL，目标条件RL，多代理RL和Meta-RL的最新进展。此外，我们讨论了MBRL在现实世界任务中的适用性和优势。最后，我们通过讨论MBRL未来发展的前景来结束这项调查。我们认为，MBRL在被忽略的现实应用程序中具有巨大的潜力和优势，我们希望这项调查能够吸引更多关于MBRL的研究。
