Multi-layer optical film has been found to afford important applications in optical communication, optical absorbers, optical filters, etc. Different algorithms of multi-layer optical film design has been developed, as simplex method, colony algorithm, genetic algorithm. These algorithms rapidly promote the design and manufacture of multi-layer films. However, traditional numerical algorithms of converge to local optimum. This means that the algorithms can not give a global optimal solution to the material researchers. In recent years, due to the rapid development to far artificial intelligence, to optimize optical film structure using AI algorithm has become possible. In this paper, we will introduce a new optical film design algorithm based on the deep Q learning. This model can converge the global optimum of the optical thin film structure, this will greatly improve the design efficiency of multi-layer films.

Machine learning, especially deep learning, is dramatically changing the methods associated with optical thin-film inverse design. The vast majority of this research has focused on the parameter optimization (layer thickness, and structure size) of optical thin-films. A challenging problem that arises is an automated material search. In this work, we propose a new end-to-end algorithm for optical thin-film inverse design. This method combines the ability of unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning(RL) and includes a genetic algorithm to design an optical thin-film without any human intervention. Furthermore, with several concrete examples, we have shown how one can use this technique to optimize the spectra of a multi-layer solar absorber device.
Reinforcement learning (RL) has gained increasing interest since the demonstration it was able to reach human performance on video game benchmarks using deep Q-learning (DQN). The current consensus for training neural networks on such complex environments is to rely on gradient-based optimization. Although alternative Bayesian deep learning methods exist, most of them still rely on gradient-based optimization, and they typically do not scale on benchmarks such as the Atari game environment. Moreover none of these approaches allow performing the analytical inference for the weights and biases defining the neural network. In this paper, we present how we can adapt the temporal difference Q-learning framework to make it compatible with the tractable approximate Gaussian inference (TAGI), which allows learning the parameters of a neural network using a closed-form analytical method. Throughout the experiments with on- and off-policy reinforcement learning approaches, we demonstrate that TAGI can reach a performance comparable to backpropagation-trained networks while using fewer hyperparameters, and without relying on gradient-based optimization.
We propose a dynamic boosted ensemble learning method based on random forest (DBRF), a novel ensemble algorithm that incorporates the notion of hard example mining into Random Forest (RF) and thus combines the high accuracy of Boosting algorithm with the strong generalization of Bagging algorithm. Specifically, we propose to measure the quality of each leaf node of every decision tree in the random forest to determine hard examples. By iteratively training and then removing easy examples from training data, we evolve the random forest to focus on hard examples dynamically so as to learn decision boundaries better. Data can be cascaded through these random forests learned in each iteration in sequence to generate predictions, thus making RF deep. We also propose to use evolution mechanism and smart iteration mechanism to improve the performance of the model. DBRF outperforms RF on three UCI datasets and achieved state-of-the-art results compared to other deep models. Moreover, we show that DBRF is also a new way of sampling and can be very useful when learning from imbalanced data.
Q-learning methods represent a commonly used class of algorithms in reinforcement learning: they are generally efficient and simple, and can be combined readily with function approximators for deep reinforcement learning (RL). However, the behavior of Q-learning methods with function approximation is poorly understood, both theoretically and empirically. In this work, we aim to experimentally investigate potential issues in Q-learning, by means of a unit testing framework where we can utilize oracles to disentangle sources of error. Specifically, we investigate questions related to function approximation, sampling error and nonstationarity, and where available, verify if trends found in oracle settings hold true with modern deep RL methods. We find that large neural network architectures have many benefits with regards to learning stability; offer several practical compensations for overfitting; and develop a novel sampling method based on explicitly compensating for function approximation error that yields fair improvement on high-dimensional continuous control domains.
Recent advances in deep reinforcement learning have achieved human-level performance on a variety of real-world applications. However, the current algorithms still suffer from poor gradient estimation with excessive variance, resulting in unstable training and poor sample efficiency. In our paper, we proposed an innovative optimization strategy by utilizing stochastic variance reduced gradient (SVRG) techniques. With extensive experiments on Atari domain, our method outperforms the deep q-learning baselines on 18 out of 20 games.
