Deep Reinforcement Learning: A Survey

📅 September 28, 2022 👤 Xu Wang, Sen Wang, Xingxing Liang et al. 📖 IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems 📊 763 citations

🤖 Plain-English Summary

Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) integrates the feature representation ability of deep learning with the decision-making ability of reinforcement learning so that it can achieve powerful end-to-end learning control capabilities. In addition to value-based and policy-based DRL algorithms, the advances in maximum entropy-based DRL are summarized.

🔑 Key Findings

  • In the past decade, DRL has made substantial advances in many tasks that require perceiving high-dimensional input and making optimal or near-optimal decisions.
  • However, there are still many challenging problems in the theory and applications of DRL, especially in learning control tasks with limited samples, sparse rewards, and multiple agents.
  • Researchers have proposed various solutions and new theories to solve these problems and promote the development of DRL.

💡 Why This Matters

This research advances how AI systems learn, reason, and solve problems — with direct implications for automation and scientific discovery.
