Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) have been recently proposed for approximating actors in actor-critic reinforcement learning algorithms. Such GMM-based actors are commonly optimized using stochastic policy gradients along with an entropy maximization objective. In contrast to previous work, we define …
We address the following mechanism design problem: Given a multi-player Normal-Form Game (NFG) with a continuous action space, find a non-discriminatory (i.e., identical for all players) restriction of the action space which maximizes the resulting Nash Equilibrium with respect to a fixed social uti…
In various control task domains, existing controllers provide a baseline level of performance that—though possibly suboptimal—should be maintained. Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms that rely on extensive exploration of the state and action space can be used to optimize a control policy. Howeve…
This paper reviews current AI solutions towards road traffic congestion alleviation. Three specific AI technologies are discussed, (1) intersection management protocols for coordinating vehicles through a roads intersection in a safe and efficient manner, (2) road pricing protocol that induce optimi…
We propose a toolkit for developing and comparing reinforcement learning (RL)-based traffic signal controllers. The toolkit includes implementation of state-of-the-art deep-RL algorithms for signal control along with benchmark control problems that are based on realistic traffic scenarios. Important…
