In this work, we propose a multi-agent actor-critic reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm to accelerate the multi-level Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) sampling algorithms. The policies (actors) of the agents are used to generate the proposal in the MCMC steps; and the critic, which is centralized, is in charge of estimating the long term reward. We verify our proposed algorithm by solving an inverse problem with multiple scales. There are several difficulties in the implementation of this problem by using traditional MCMC sampling. Firstly, the computation of the posterior distribution involves evaluating the forward solver, which is very time consuming for a problem with heterogeneous. We hence propose to use the multi-level algorithm. More precisely, we use the generalized multiscale finite element method (GMsFEM) as the forward solver in evaluating a posterior distribution in the multi-level rejection procedure. Secondly, it is hard to find a function which can generate samplings which are meaningful. To solve this issue, we learn an RL policy as the proposal generator. Our experiments show that the proposed method significantly improves the sampling process
Object-centric representations have recently enabled significant progress in tackling relational reasoning tasks. By building a strong object-centric inductive bias into neural architectures, recent efforts have improved generalization and data effic
In cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (c-MARL), agents learn to cooperatively take actions as a team to maximize a total team reward. We analyze the robustness of c-MARL to adversaries capable of attacking one of the agents on a team. Thr
Social learning is a key component of human and animal intelligence. By taking cues from the behavior of experts in their environment, social learners can acquire sophisticated behavior and rapidly adapt to new circumstances. This paper investigates
Timely completion of design cycles for complex systems ranging from consumer electronics to hypersonic vehicles relies on rapid simulation-based prototyping. The latter typically involves high-dimensional spaces of possibly correlated control variabl
Large-scale finite element simulations of complex physical systems governed by partial differential equations crucially depend on adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) to allocate computational budget to regions where higher resolution is required. Existing
