Event-Based Communication in Distributed Q-Learning

We present an approach to reduce the communication of information needed on a Distributed Q-Learning system inspired by Event Triggered Control (ETC) techniques. We consider a baseline scenario of a Distributed Q-Learning problem on a Markov Decision Process (MDP). Following an event-based approach, N agents sharing a value function explore the...

Scalable Traffic Models for Scheduling of Linear Periodic Event-Triggered Controllers

This paper addresses the problem of modeling and scheduling the transmissions generated by multiple event-triggered control (ETC) loops sharing a network. We present a method to build a finite-state similar model of the traffic generated by periodic ETC (PETC), which by construction mitigates the combinatorial explosion that is typical of...
