Q 学习是无模型强化学习的变体。在 Q 学习中,我们希望代理估计(状态,动作)对的好坏,以便它可以在每个状态中选择好的动作。这是通过近似拟合下面等式的动作值函数(Q)来完成的:
其中 s 和 a 是当前时间步的状态和动作。 R 是直接奖励, 是折扣因素。并且, s’ 是观察到的下一个状态。
当代理与环境交互时,它会看到它所处的状态,执行操作,获得奖励,并观察它已移动到的新状态。该循环继续直到代理达到终止状态。由于 Q-learning 是一种非策略方法,我们可以将每个(状态,动作,奖励,next_state)保存为重放缓冲区中的体验。在每次训练迭代中对这些经验进行采样,并用于改进我们对 Q 的估计。以下是:
- 从
next_state
通过假设代理贪婪地选择该状态中的动作来计算下一步的 Q 值,因此下面的代码中的np.max(next_state_value)
。 - 下一步的 Q 值被打折并添加到代理人观察到的直接奖励中:(状态,行动,奖励,状态’)
- 如果状态动作导致剧集终止,我们使用
Q = reward
代替上面的步骤 1 和 2(情节学习)。所以我们还需要为每个添加到缓冲区的体验添加终止标志:(状态,动作,奖励,next_state,终止) - 此时,我们有一个从
reward
和next_state
计算的 Q 值,我们还有另一个 Q 值,它是 q 网络函数逼近器的输出。通过使用梯度下降改变 q 网络函数逼近器的参数并最小化这两个动作值之间的差异,Q 函数逼近器收敛于真实动作值。
这是深 Q 网络的实现。

在深 Q 网络中, 很少有机制用于改善代理的收敛性。一个是强调从重放缓冲区随机抽样经验,以防止采样体验之间的任何时间关系。另一种机制是使用目标网络来评估 next_state
的 Q 值。目标网络与学习者网络类似,但其参数的修改频率要低得多。此外,目标网络不会通过梯度下降来更新,而是每隔一段时间从学习者网络复制其参数。
