Traffic light control using deep policy‐gradient and value‐function‐based reinforcement learning
Open accessAbstract
Recent advances in combining deep neural network architectures with reinforcement learning (RL) techniques have shown promising potential results in solving complex control problems with high‐dimensional state and action spaces. Inspired by these successes, in this study, the authors built two kinds of RL algorithms: deep policy‐gradient (PG) and value‐function‐based agents which can predict the best possible traffic signal for a traffic intersection. At each time step, these adaptive traffic light control agents receive a snapshot of the current state of a graphical traffic simulator and produce control signals. The PG‐based agent maps its observation directly to the control signal; however, the value‐function‐based agent first estimates values for all legal control signals. The agent then selects the optimal control action with the highest value. Their methods show promising results in a traffic network simulated in the simulation of urban mobility traffic simulator, without suffering from instability issues during the training process.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
