چکیده

In this paper we introduce a novel scale-invariant and parameterless technique, called adaptive objective selection, that allows a temporal-difference learning agent to exploit the correlation between objectives in a multi-objective problem. It identifies and follows in each state the objective whose estimates it is most confident about. We propose several variants of the approach and empirically demonstrate it on a toy problem.

Combining Multiple Correlated Reward and Shaping Signals by Measuring Confidence

Multi-objective problems with correlated objectives are a class of problems that deserve specific attention. In contrast to typical multi-objective problems, they do not require the identification of trade-offs between the objectives, as (near-) optimal solutions for any objective are (near-) optimal for every objective. Intelligently combining the feedback from these objectives, instead of onl...

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...

Using Ensemble Techniques and Multi-Objectivization to Solve Reinforcement Learning Problems

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 ...

Hypervolume-Based Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning

Indicator-based evolutionary algorithms are amongst the best performing methods for solving multi-objective optimization (MOO) problems. In reinforcement learning (RL), introducing a quality indicator in an algorithm’s decision logic was not attempted before. In this paper, we propose a novel on-line multi-objective reinforcement learning (MORL) algorithm that uses the hypervolume indicator as ...
