  1. 1. Scalable Reinforcement Learning for Linear-Quadratic Control of Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Johan Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Distributed optimal control is known to be challenging and can become intractable even for linear-quadratic regulator problems. In this work, we study a special class of such problems where distributed state feedback controllers can give near-optimal performance. READ MORE

  2. 2. Scalable Reinforcement Learning for Formation Control with Collision Avoidance : Localized policy gradient algorithm with continuous state and action space

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI); KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Andreu Matoses Gimenez; [2023]
    Keywords : Control theory; Multi-agent systems; Distributed systems; Formation control; Collision avoidance; Reinforcement learning; Teoria de control; Sistemes multiagent; Sistemes distribuïts; Control de formació; Prevenció de col·lisions; Reinforcement Learning; Reglerteknik; Multi-agent system; Distribuerade system; formationskontroll; Kollisionsundvikande; Reinforcement learning; Teoría de control; Sistemas multiagente; Sistemas distribuidos; Control de formación; Prevención de colisiones; Reinforcement Learning;

    Abstract : In the last decades, significant theoretical advances have been made on the field of distributed mulit-agent control theory. One of the most common systems that can be modelled as multi-agent systems are the so called formation control problems, in which a network of mobile agents is controlled to move towards a desired final formation.

  3. 3. Intelligent autoscaling in Kubernetes : the impact of container performance indicators in model-free DRL methods

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Tommaso Praturlon; [2023]
    Keywords : Cloud computing; container autoscaling; resource optimisation; Deep Reinforcement Learning; Actor-Critic; Kubernetes; service mesh; Cloud computing; container autoscaling; Optimering av resurser; Deep Reinforcement Learning; Actor-Critic; Kubernetes; service mesh;

    Abstract : A key challenge in the field of cloud computing is to automatically scale software containers in a way that accurately matches the demand for the services they run. To manage such components, container orchestrator tools such as Kubernetes are employed, and in the past few years, researchers have attempted to optimise its autoscaling mechanism with different approaches.

  4. 4. Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach to Portfolio Optimization

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Lorik Sadriu; [2022]
    Keywords : Deep Reinforcement Learning; Portfolio Optimization; Portfolio performance; EMH; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : This paper evaluates whether a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach can be implemented, on the Swedish stock market, to optimize a portfolio. The objective is to create and train two DRL algorithms that can construct portfolios that will be benchmarked against the market portfolio, tracking OMXS30, and the two conventional methods, the naive portfolio, and minimum variance portfolio.

  5. 5. Spiking Reinforcement Learning for Robust Robot Control Under Varying Operating Conditions

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Philipp Mondorf; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Over the last few years, deep reinforcement learning (RL) has gained increasing popularity for its successful application to a variety of complex control and decision-making tasks. As the demand for deep RL algorithms deployed in challenging real-world environments grows, their robustness towards uncertainty, disturbances and perturbations of the environment becomes more and more important.
