We consider an agent interacting with an unmodeled environment. At each time, the agent makes an observation, takes an action, and incurs a cost. Its actions can influence future observations and costs. The goal is to minimize the long-term average cost. We propose a novel algorithm, known as the active LZ algorithm, for optimal control based on ideas from the Lempel-Ziv scheme for universal data compression and prediction. We establish that, under the active LZ algorithm, if there exists an integer $K$ such that the future is conditionally independent of the past given a window of $K$ consecutive actions and observations, then the average cost converges to the optimum. Experimental results involving the game of Rock-Paper-Scissors illustrate merits of the algorithm.

This paper formulates the polar-code construction problem for the successive-cancellation list (SCL) decoder as a maze-traversing game, which can be solved by reinforcement learning techniques. The proposed method provides a novel technique for polar
-code construction that no longer depends on sorting and selecting bit-channels by reliability. Instead, this technique decides whether the input bits should be frozen in a purely sequential manner. The equivalence of optimizing the polar-code construction for the SCL decoder under this technique and maximizing the expected reward of traversing a maze is drawn. Simulation results show that the standard polar-code constructions that are designed for the successive-cancellation decoder are no longer optimal for the SCL decoder with respect to the frame error rate. In contrast, the simulations show that, with a reasonable amount of training, the game-based construction method finds code constructions that have lower frame-error rate for various code lengths and decoders compared to standard constructions.
We consider a source that wishes to communicate with a destination at a desired rate, over a mmWave network where links are subject to blockage and nodes to failure (e.g., in a hostile military environment). To achieve resilience to link and node fai
lures, we here explore a state-of-the-art Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) deep reinforcement learning algorithm, that adapts the information flow through the network, without using knowledge of the link capacities or network topology. Numerical evaluations show that our algorithm can achieve the desired rate even in dynamic environments and it is robust against blockage.
For ultra-dense networks with wireless backhaul, caching strategy at small base stations (SBSs), usually with limited storage, is critical to meet massive high data rate requests. Since the content popularity profile varies with time in an unknown wa
y, we exploit reinforcement learning (RL) to design a cooperative caching strategy with maximum-distance separable (MDS) coding. We model the MDS coding based cooperative caching as a Markov decision process to capture the popularity dynamics and maximize the long-term expected cumulative traffic load served directly by the SBSs without accessing the macro base station. For the formulated problem, we first find the optimal solution for a small-scale system by embedding the cooperative MDS coding into Q-learning. To cope with the large-scale case, we approximate the state-action value function heuristically. The approximated function includes only a small number of learnable parameters and enables us to propose a fast and efficient action-selection approach, which dramatically reduces the complexity. Numerical results verify the optimality/near-optimality of the proposed RL based algorithms and show the superiority compared with the baseline schemes. They also exhibit good robustness to different environments.
In this paper, the problem of minimizing the weighted sum of age of information (AoI) and total energy consumption of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is studied. In the considered model, each IoT device monitors a physical process that follows nonli
near dynamics. As the dynamics of the physical process vary over time, each device must find an optimal sampling frequency to sample the real-time dynamics of the physical system and send sampled information to a base station (BS). Due to limited wireless resources, the BS can only select a subset of devices to transmit their sampled information. Thus, edge devices must cooperatively sample their monitored dynamics based on the local observations and the BS must collect the sampled information from the devices immediately, hence avoiding the additional time and energy used for sampling and information transmission. To this end, it is necessary to jointly optimize the sampling policy of each device and the device selection scheme of the BS so as to accurately monitor the dynamics of the physical process using minimum energy. This problem is formulated as an optimization problem whose goal is to minimize the weighted sum of AoI cost and energy consumption. To solve this problem, we propose a novel distributed reinforcement learning (RL) approach for the sampling policy optimization. The proposed algorithm enables edge devices to cooperatively find the global optimal sampling policy using their own local observations. Given the sampling policy, the device selection scheme can be optimized thus minimizing the weighted sum of AoI and energy consumption of all devices. Simulations with real data of PM 2.5 pollution show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the sum of AoI by up to 17.8% and 33.9% and the total energy consumption by up to 13.2% and 35.1%, compared to a conventional deep Q network method and a uniform sampling policy.
Scheduling the transmission of time-sensitive information from a source node to multiple users over error-prone communication channels is studied with the goal of minimizing the long-term average age of information (AoI) at the users. A long-term ave
rage resource constraint is imposed on the source, which limits the average number of transmissions. The source can transmit only to a single user at each time slot, and after each transmission, it receives an instantaneous ACK/NACK feedback from the intended receiver, and decides when and to which user to transmit the next update. Assuming the channel statistics are known, the optimal scheduling policy is studied for both the standard automatic repeat request (ARQ) and hybrid ARQ (HARQ) protocols. Then, a reinforcement learning(RL) approach is introduced to find a near-optimal policy, which does not assume any a priori information on the random processes governing the channel states. Different RL methods including average-cost SARSAwith linear function approximation (LFA), upper confidence reinforcement learning (UCRL2), and deep Q-network (DQN) are applied and compared through numerical simulations
