Subtask-masked curriculum learning for reinforcement learning with application to UAV maneuver decision-making

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) maneuver strategy learning remains a challenge when using Reinforcement Learning (RL) in this sparse reward task. In this paper, we propose Subtask-Masked curriculum learning for RL (SUBMAS-RL), an efficient RL paradigm that implements curriculum learning and knowledge transfer for UAV maneuver scenarios...

Automatic enhancement of vascular configuration for self-healing concrete through reinforcement learning approach

Vascular self-healing concrete (SHC) has great potential to mitigate the environmental impact of the construction industry by increasing the durability of structures. Designing concrete with high initial mechanical properties by searching a specific arrangement of vascular structure is of great importance. Herein, an automatic optimization...
