Gao, Xin (author), Li, Xueyuan (author), Liu, Qi (author), Li, Z. (author), Yang, Fan (author), Luan, Tian (author)As one of the main elements of reinforcement learning, the design of the reward function is often not given enough attention when reinforcement learning is used in concrete applications, which leads to unsatisfactory performances. In this study, a reward function matrix is proposed for training various decision-making modes with emphasis on...journal article 2022
