Soft Actor-Critic With Integer Actions
Reinforcement learning is well-studied under discrete actions. Integer actions setting is popular in the industry yet still challenging due to its high dimensionality. To this end, we study reinforcement learning under integer actions by incorporating the Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) algorithm with an integer reparameterization. Our key observation for integer actions is that their discrete structure can be simplified using their comparability property. Hence, the proposed integer reparameterization does not need one-hot encoding and is of low dimensionality. Experiments show that the proposed SAC under integer actions is as good as the continuous action version on robot control tasks and outperforms Proximal Policy Optimization on power distribution systems control tasks.
