Reinforcement learning can be applied to a wide variety of problems. However, the fundamental limitation of reinforcement learning is that it is difficult to derive an answer within a given time because the problems in the real world are too complex. Then, with the development of neural network technology, research on deep reinforcement learning that combines deep learning with reinforcement learning is receiving lots of attention. In this paper, two types of neural networks are combined with reinforcement learning and their characteristics were compared and analyzed with existing value-based reinforcement learning algorithms. Two types of neural networks are FNN and CNN, and existing reinforcement learning algorithms are SARSA and Q-learning.

In order to learn in dynamic environments, reinforcement learning algorithms like Q-learning, TD(0)-learning, TD(λ)-learning have been proposed. however, most of them have a drawback of very slow learning because the reinforcement value is given when they reach their goal state. In this thesis, we have proposed a reinforcement learning method that can approximate fast to the goal state in maze environments. The proposed reinforcement learning method is separated into global learning and local learning, and then it executes learning. Global learning is a learning that uses the replacing eligibility trace method to search the goal state. In local learning, it propagates the goal state value that has been searched through global learning to neighboring sates, and then searches goal state in neighboring states. we can show through experiments that the reinforcement learning method proposed in this thesis can find out an optimal solution faster than other reinforcement learning methods like Q-learning, TD(o)learning and TD(λ)-learning.

Reinforcement learning is a learning method that uses trial-and-error to perform Learning by interacting with dynamic environments. It is classified into online reinforcement learning and delayed reinforcement learning. In this paper, we propose an online reinforcement learning system (ONRELS : Outline REinforcement Learning System). ONRELS updates the estimate-value about all the selectable (state, action) pairs before making state-transition at the current state. The ONRELS learns by interacting with the compressed environments through trial-and-error after it compresses the state space of the mage environments. Through experiments, we can see that ONRELS can search the shortest path faster than Q-learning using TD-ewor and $Q(\lambda{)}$-learning using $TD(\lambda{)}$ in the maze environments.

Reinforcement learning performs learning through interacting with trial-and-error in dynamic environment. Therefore, in dynamic environment, reinforcement learning method like Q-learning and TD(Temporal Difference)-learning are faster in learning than the conventional stochastic learning method. However, because many of the proposed reinforcement learning algorithms are given the reinforcement value only when the learning agent has reached its goal state, most of the reinforcement algorithms converge to the optimal solution too slowly. In this paper, we present COMREL(COMpressed REinforcement Learning) algorithm for finding the shortest path fast in a maze environment, select the candidate states that can guide the shortest path in compressed maze environment, and learn only the candidate states to find the shortest path. After comparing COMREL algorithm with the already existing Q-learning and Priortized Sweeping algorithm, we could see that the learning time shortened very much.

Evolutionary algorithms are probabilistic optimization algorithms based on the model of natural evolution. Recently the efforts to improve the performance of evolutionary algorithms have been made extensively. In this paper, we introduce the research for improving the convergence rate and search faculty of evolution algorithms by using reinforcement learning. After providing an introduction to evolution algorithms and reinforcement learning, we present adaptive genetic algorithms, reinforcement genetic programming, and reinforcement evolution strategies which are combined with reinforcement learning. Adaptive genetic algorithms generate mutation probabilities of each locus by interacting with the environment according to reinforcement learning. Reinforcement genetic programming executes crossover and mutation operations based on reinforcement and inhibition mechanism of reinforcement learning. Reinforcement evolution strategies use the variances of fitness occurred by mutation to make the reinforcement signals which estimate and control the step length.

Reinforcement learning performs learning through interacting with trial-and-error in dynamic environment. Therefore, in dynamic environment, reinforcement learning method like TD-learning and TD(${\lambda}$)-learning are faster in learning than the conventional stochastic learning method. However, because many of the proposed reinforcement learning algorithms are given the reinforcement value only when the learning agent has reached its goal state, most of the reinforcement algorithms converge to the optimal solution too slowly. In this paper, we present GDRLS algorithm for finding the shortest path faster in a maze environment. GDRLS is select the candidate states that can guide the shortest path in maze environment, and learn only the candidate states to find the shortest path. Through experiments, we can see that GDRLS can search the shortest path faster than TD-learning and TD(${\lambda}$)-learning in maze environment.

Reinforcement learning learns policies for accomplishing a task's goal by experience through interaction between agent and environment. Q-learning, basis algorithm of reinforcement learning, has the problem of curse of dimensionality and slow learning speed in the incipient stage of learning. In order to solve the problems of Q-learning, new function approximation methods suitable for reinforcement learning should be studied. In this paper, to improve these problems, we suggest Fuzzy Q-Map algorithm that is based on online fuzzy clustering. Fuzzy Q-Map is a function approximation method suitable to reinforcement learning that can do on-line teaming and express uncertainty of environment. We made an experiment on the mountain car problem with fuzzy Q-Map, and its results show that learning speed is accelerated in the incipient stage of learning.

The robot soccer simulation game is a dynamic multi-agent environment. In this paper we suggest a new reinforcement learning approach to each agent´s dynamic positioning in such dynamic environment. Reinforcement learning is the machine learning in which an agent learns from indirect, delayed reward an optimal policy to choose sequences of actions that produce the greatest cumulative reward. Therefore the reinforcement learning is different from supervised learning in the sense that there is no presentation of input-output pairs as training examples. Furthermore, model-free reinforcement learning algorithms like Q-learning do not require defining or learning any models of the surrounding environment. Nevertheless ...

Machine learning is comprised of supervised learning, unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning as the type of data and processing mechanism. In this paper, as input and output are unclear and it is difficult to apply the concrete modeling mathematically, reinforcement learning method are applied for crawling robot in this paper. Especially, Q-Learning is the most effective learning technique in model free reinforcement learning. This paper presents a method to implement a crawling robot that is operated by finding the most optimal crawling method through trial and error in a dynamic environment using a Q-learning algorithm. The goal is to perform reinforcement learning to find the optimal two motor angle for the best performance, and finally to maintain the most mature and stable motion about EV3 Crawling robot. In this paper, for the production of the crawling robot, it was produced using Lego Mindstorms with two motors, an ultrasonic sensor, a brick and switches, and EV3 Classroom SW are used for this implementation. By repeating 3 times learning, total 60 data are acquired, and two motor angles vs. crawling distance graph are plotted for the more understanding. Applying the Q-learning reinforcement learning algorithm, it was confirmed that the crawling robot found the optimal motor angle and operated with trained learning, and learn to know the direction for the future research.
