Evolutionary reinforcement learning of dynamical large deviations

2019-09-02 · Stephen Whitelam, Daniel Jacobson, Isaac Tamblyn

We show how to calculate the likelihood of dynamical large deviations using evolutionary reinforcement learning. An agent, a stochastic model, propagates a continuous-time Monte Carlo trajectory and receives a reward conditioned upon the values of certain path-extensive quantities. Evolution produces progressively fitter agents, eventually allowing the calculation of a piece of a large-deviation rate function for a particular model and path-extensive quantity. For models with small state spaces the evolutionary process acts directly on rates, and for models with large state spaces the process acts on the weights of a neural network that parameterizes the model's rates. This approach shows how path-extensive physics problems can be considered within a framework widely used in machine learning.

Dynamical large deviations of two-dimensional kinetically constrained models using a neural-network state ansatz

2020-11-17 · Corneel Casert, Tom Vieijra, Stephen Whitelam, Isaac Tamblyn

We use a neural network ansatz originally designed for the variational optimization of quantum systems to study dynamical large deviations in classical ones. We obtain the scaled cumulant-generating function for the dyna…

LERO: LLM-driven Evolutionary framework with Hybrid Rewards and Enhanced Observation for Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

2025-03-25 · Yuan Wei, Xiaohan Shan, Jianmin Li

Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) faces two critical bottlenecks distinct from single-agent RL: credit assignment in cooperative tasks and partial observability of environmental states. We propose LERO, a framewo…
