Abstract

A deep transfer reinforcement learning (DTRL) method based on transfer learning within a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework is provided to accelerate the GoB optimization decisions when experiencing environment changes in the same source radio network agent or when being applied from a source radio network agent to a target radio network agent. The transferability of the knowledge embedded in a pre-trained neural network model as a Q-approximator is exploited, and a mechanism to transfer parameters from a source agent to a target agent is provided, where the transferability criterion is based on the similarity measure between the source and target domain.
