Fine-tuning deep RL with gradient-free optimization

Deep reinforcement learning makes it possible to train control policies that map high-dimensional observations to actions. These methods typically use gradient-based optimization techniques to enable relatively efficient learning, but are notoriously sensitive to hyperparameter choices and do not have good convergence properties. Gradient...

Railway track circuit fault diagnosis using recurrent neural networks

Timely detection and identification of faults in railway track circuits are crucial for the safety and availability of railway networks. In this paper, the use of the long-short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network is proposed to accomplish these tasks based on the commonly available measurement signals. By considering the signals from...
