Evolving Meta-Level Reasoning with Reinforcement Learning and A* for Coordinated Multi-Agent Path-planning
Mona Alshehri, Napoleon H. Reyes, Andre L. C. Barczak · 2020
This work presents an extension to a graph-based evolutionary algorithm, called Genetic Network Programming with Reinforcement Learning (GNP-RL) to make it more amenable for solving coordinated multi-agent path-planning tasks in dynamic environments. We improve the algorithm's ability to evolve meta-level reasoning strategies in three aspects: genetic composition, search and learning strategies, using optimal search algorithm, constraint conformance and task prioritization techniques.
