General Tree Evaluation for AlphaZero

Over the last decade, there have been significant advances in model-based deep reinforcement learning. One of the most successful such algorithms is AlphaZero which combines Monte Carlo Tree Search with deep learning. AlphaZero and its successors commonly describe a unified framework for tree construction and acting. For instance, build the tree...

Scheduling a Flexible Manufacturing System: A reinforcement learning based approach

A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) has advantages over traditional manufacturing systems due to its ability to deal with unpredicted circumstances such as changes in demand or component breakdowns by re-routing. However, this flexibility increases the complexity of controlling such a system. Traditionally, the system model is simplified to...
